Use Fresh Shrimp: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh shrimp if possible. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them properly in the refrigerator before cooking.
Don’t Overcook the Shrimp: Keep a close eye on the shrimp while they cook. They only need a few minutes and will continue to cook slightly even after being removed from the heat.
Customize the Cocktail Sauce: Adjust the amount of horseradish to suit your taste. You can make it spicier or milder, depending on your preference.
Serve on Ice: Keep the shrimp chilled by serving them over a bed of crushed ice. This will help maintain their freshness and flavor, especially when serving in warm weather.
