Shrimp Cocktail with the Perfect Cocktail Sauce | Chef Jean-Pierre

[@brendaalbaugh8927]

Does everyone else talk about The Chef and his recipes like you talk about what your best friend just told you? I find I repeat the things he says, refer to his support bowl of butter…which I now have and call onions onyo. How tv managed to let him go I have no idea! Takes a special person to reach out and truly connect with your audience and make them your friends! Thanks Chef

[@ChefJeanPierre]

Thank you Brenda, your comment made me smile from ear to ear!!! It is because of people like you that I do this! THANK YOU!!!😀

[@valeriepeeler7699]

I was just telling my friend about Chef JP. "Onyo" and "if you don't have it, don't put in in!" Chef, I have watched your videos over and over. My husband now walks around the house randomly exclaiming "Onyo, ONYO!" Love what you are doing with your channel.

[@annemiekvandorp4457]

@@FKHMUSIC I call it butter-washed... ;-)

[@petersalls4083]

I find myself talking like him and I often refer to him regarding food

[@jpatt1000]

YES! I am constantly using his phrases! (My favorite is when I pull out the cognac and say "I wanna replace da wada dat tas like nuting wit..........BOOZE!") It not only is fun and I have a pretty good Jean Pierre impression down which I may try in a spoof video of making something mundane like Kraft mac n cheese (which when you forgo the milk and just use butter really is amazing my friends) but just repeating him locks down the order in which to do things in my brain. He is also right, there is no mystical power to cook like this, just do things in order and be sure to get rid of the enemy.

I am a son, a brother, an uncle and even a cancer survivor...but no name means more to me than being called a "friend" by Chef!!

🙏🙏🙏😀

[@fattysgarage1754]

Not only does Chef teach about cooking but teaches that even the most simplest dish has specific techniques. A true teacher!

[@TheExcellentOutdoors]

Cooking is art. Baking is chemistry.

[@ireneposti6813]

What a beautiful presentation. I wish my husband was still alive he would have loved this. He was a stickler on presentation 😋

[@lampham2954]

My aunts saw me making this dish and asked my mom if we went to a restaurant or something 😆. This dish is delicious and easy to make. The shrimp is snappy and the sauce taste amazing. The white worcester sauce discontinued production so I used the original worcester sauce instead. My mom ate 1 lb of shrimp in less than 10 min lol. I have never seen my mom enjoying my food like that. Thank you chef for this dish 😄

[@barryphillips6658]

I was looking for a recipe for shrimp cocktail sauce, and I remembered this video from about a year ago. I made shrimp cocktail as an appetizer for my wife for this Sunday night dinner. Your sauce is delicious! Certainly, much better than the store bought stuff in a jar. BTW: Watching your cooking videos, you have taught me three important things: 1. Onyon is always #1, unless there is bacon. 2. Put the tool on top of the lemon; not the lemon on top of the tool. 3. Measure carefully.

[@ChefJeanPierre]

👍👍👍😊❤️

[@OrthodoxJourney359]

I always wondered how to get that beautiful snap. Thank you so much Chef, God bless.

[@micheandmikey]

I'm the chef at home, because I was a chef in high school at my uncle's restaurant .....I've always loved to cook, you make me want to cook every time I watch! Thanks chef!!

[@johnhoffay9081]

Water The enemy of food After 30 years cooking i never saw shrimp cooked that way ! Makes perfect sense ! Thanks Chef !

[@jarednewman4926]

I learn from every show. Even if I think I know how to do something I learn a better way. Thanks for the education.

[@fullforged1953]

30 seconds in and I already chuckled. Love it

[@Zendukai]

For us here, if you cook crab or prawns we use sea water it has the right amount of salt, if you make your own sea water out of tap water, to get the right saltyness we put a potato in the water and keep adding and stirring the water till the potato floats then you have the right amount of salt. But others now just steam them in their own shells, not so much liquid in with the meat, thats the bestway, thats my opinion only. Thanks for the video Chef !

[@stayseasuz]

Once again, what a great technique and recipe. I'm learning so much from you, Chef Jean Pierre. Thank you so much!

[@steveboone5480]

I am excited for this presentation Chef!!! I can’t wait to hand one of these masterpieces to my wife!!! Looks amazing

[@SanFreeman1]

Giving new meaning to the word "cocktail" sauce. Looks good and thanks for a snappy recipe, Chef.

[@chrisbrigalia5766]

Jean, you almost seem like a brother I never knew I had. I’m 68 .You come from the almost same back ground as l. For me it’s Sicilian on my father’s side & Acadian French on my mother’s side. I have been around some of the best cooking for most of my life. I truly love the way you are teaching the world how to cook. I do my shrimp cocktail almost the same way. But truth be told I would rather have my shrimp a little under cooked than over cooked. I just hate peeling over cooked shrimp or crawfish. God bless you for what you do. Keep doing it your way. I learned a long time ago to incorporate the cooking knowledge of great cooks in my family. its nice to see and learn from a classical trained chef & incorporating that side of it with my family’s recipe’s. Look for my post on future videos. I usually don’t post to the internet. Old school runs deep in me. But for you I’ll post on yours . The best praise I can give.

[@ChefJeanPierre]

Thank you Chris 😊

[@kenschneider2100]

We love Chef Jen Pierre B. So generous with his talents.

[@robert8321]

Chef! Thank you for (instantly) making me look better in front of my guests....I just bought a bunch of Argentinian Reds (U-15). I timed them with your cold water boil-technique. Huge SNAP difference. I admit, I was a cold soaker also. Not anymore. Thanks, Chef. Robert, Naples

[@usergonemad]

You've gotten me through a lot of rough times in the past year, Chef Jean-Pierre. Thank you for the lessons and the distractions they provide!

[@amoose8439]

Editing is on point once again! Love the interludes... And finally I can justify to my wife my love for shrimp cocktails

[@alanloeper3953]

When this Chef say's simple, the recipe is truly simplicity in itself. Made this at home and it didn't take much longer than this video.

[@anemone108]

You can tell what a sweet person he is, as well as a fab chef and great teacher.

[@russmarky9387]

Thanks Chef, I've been throwing shrimp into boiling water for the last 40 years. Tried it your way, they're awesome!

[@g5cstarfield331]

Ho provato la ricetta. Era un gran successo! Grazie per i suggerimenti, Maestro. E sempre un piacere seguire questi lezioni.

[@ChefJeanPierre]

Grazie mille! Sono felice che sia stato un successo per te! 😀

[@jimcapone2593]

Very good video- I learned that I have been making shrimp cocktail incorrectly ! I always let the water boil then put the shrimp. NOT ANY LONGER!

[@Dansiekelly]

Love you Chef. Hope you’re well my friend.

[@matteopascazio1927]

I like the background music which I just noticed, cool music. For once you got to taste without burning your mouth. You are an excellent chef and a great person, have a great 4th of July. God Bless America!

[@TheKenGraves]

Another fine video, my friend! The tips you give, like not leaving the shrimp in ice water too long, may seem simple. They do, however, mean the difference between a so-so dish and an amazing one. Keep up the great work, sir, and have an amazing Independence Day!! God Bless America!

[@4312caviar]

I Did not know that either 🤒

[@jamesherchel5827]

That’s one beautiful shrimp cocktail. Fantastic

[@judefrazier4727]

Grilled swordfish steak, in Romaine lettuce wrap, dressed, with my shrimp cocktail….tonight. This is the perfect shrimp cocktail recipe Chef Jean

[@russellkociuba6538]

I stumbled on your KZbin video and watched the video on garlic shrimp, delicious. I made it and had complements from my wife and daughter. You really made it easy to follow. Merci Chef.

[@sarahb2623]

This looks wonderful! Chef, watching you munch down like a gerbil on such beautiful shrimp was priceless! Thank you for a great cocktail sauce recipe!

[@seanbryant2848]

I love this recipe and especially the cocktail sauce. Chef knows exactly what he's doing here, because the vodka and the ketchup (and other ingredients, but especially the ketchup) is a magical combination, as the tomatoes contain flavinoids that really light up in the presence of alcohol; it's a bit of chemistry that is magical and mystical, the same as with the traditional "penne alla vodka" recipes that are out there. The use of alcohol in dishes is more than just for the surprise factor of using alcohol, it is there for a truly useful purpose.

[@daphnepearce9411]

Hmmmmm, that's probably why bloody marys taste so good!

[@smoothbeak]

I would love to go to a Chef Jean-Pierre cocktail party!

[@williamstolley2165]

One can dream... not too much... measure carefully

[@chefbink61]

Well done Chef. The last resort I worked we did a Sunday brunch, any where from 500 to 800 covers and we cooked tons of shrimp for it, and I can tell they are spot on!!

[@byronjones7263]

It is now October 10th and saw this photo of shrimp cocktail. I love a good cocktail sauce, so summery. A couple of notes. 1. I lived overseas 5 1/2 of last 7 years, Asia to be precise and there Worcestershire is often called "English Sauce". Difficulty in saying it by many Asian peoples. 2. I make cocktail sauce and keep it overnight in fridge. Never tried Limoncello, but will for sure. 3. I line the callander with cheese cloth. Draining the shellfish into cheesecloth and pulling it up into a ball of shellfish and then drop into ice bath so it instantly is underwater. Then remove to paper towel lined cookie sheet to drain shrimps. Then present like you do in a Martini or Margarita glass (I'm originally from West Coast). I like a well chilled bottle of a good, Sparkling Rose (2 or 3) for Shrimp Cocktail, California or French. Sliced French Bread toasted with garlic butter, chunks of good blue cheese, and some Brie. Sides of GREEN Apples, yes GREEN, and Pears, sliced, with bowls of sour cream and brown sugar for dipping the fruit. Alongside a river or lake, on blanket, under a shade tree, ahhhhhhhhhhh. Caution, be prepared she asks you to marry her. ;-) Better bring extra blanket, for modesty sake, hehehehe Cooking is for, How you cook it, Who you cooking it for, Why (goes to presentation), and where you're going to close the deal. Dining Room, Kitchen area, TV room, outdoors. Rough not fine measurements, this is ART, not finance. Chef, always enjoy your videos here as I always see something to improve my game. Thank you so much. Stay safe and healthy Adieu

[@ChefJeanPierre]

Thank you 🙏

[@nickgeorgiou7770]

I must make the cocktail sauce. I’ve never seen it made with liquor. Looks great

[@angelaberni8873]

I've made it with brandy,but will try his version.

[@DonPandemoniac]

@@angelaberni8873 With brandy, and even some mayo it's so good.

[@ebf1003]

I've always used tequila. I add it to the cocktail sauce too.

[@BigLove101]

Good job as always Chef Jean=Pierre.

[@edfaulk2868]

I didn’t make the cocktail sauce, but I cooked the shrimp as per Chef JP’s instructions, and was the best shrimp cocktail ever!

[@stayseasuz]

You must try the cocktail sauce- best ever!

[@briandavis9952]

huh so u made shrimp,,?????

[@braddixon3338]

hmmm, I love Limoncello, but would never have thought about adding it to a cocktail sauce. I also learned a great tip there about how to cook the shrimp the proper way. You're the best!! Thanks for producing such great content.

[@djstantsia7905]

i know couple of guys who would prefer liquidy sauce. Shef you're the best.

[@WPTheRabbitHole]

THANK YOU for eating the food you cook afterwards. i hate when they don't try the food in the video.

I finally learned how to properly cook shrimp. I’ve been doing it wrong for so long. Thank you Chef.

[@carolegeddes998]

Love shrimp cocktail done right. Thank you Chef for the tips particularly not letting the shrimp oversoak as they cool.

[@stevecowart395]

Looks delicious! Especially the sauce with vodka and lemoncello!

[@davelimon1942]

Well my short ribs came out great. Used the sauce over pasta. T'was so good. My Onyo Pie was incredible. Added bacon and sauteed mushrooms. My friends think I'm going to cooking school. Can't wait to try this! Perhaps for the fourth.

[@67Moufid]

A great recipe from an outstanding Chef.

[@pepedelospalotes3479]

Merci Chef JP, très délicieux!!!

[@tawpgk]

I cook my shrimp by only steaming for a couple of minutes depending on size. If necessary I will put the boiling water over the shrimp as I drain. For risottos and paellas, I just cook them with carry over heat at the end of cooking. I hate overcooked shrimp. For me, boiling always overcooks the shrimp. Obviously this would be impossible in bulk, but for a few people at dinner, this works for me.

[@Richnwealthy]

So as a former development executive for reality tv shows, Chef ur the man, Can we get you on network tv my friend ur awesome, your recipes are amazing and super entertaining. Just saying, thanks for another great video chef.
