Add a little zest to your game day menu with the vivid flavors of these shrimp rolls. For football season, we asked TABLE friend Chef Kevin Hermann to create game day recipes that are suitable for tailgating or for a spread served in your own home. What he created was an epic menu that’ll draw even non-fans to the part. These shrimp rolls aren’t just for the Super Bowl, they can be for any occasion!
Tips for Making Shrimp Rolls
Though the assembly for shrimp rolls is simple, like many culinary projects it requires some delicacy. Cook the shrimp until they’re just opaque. Usually 2-3 minutes is enough. Overcooking can make them tough. Then, you’ll want to make sure when you mix all the items together that the shrimp really get coated with the ingredients. If you want to, you can also toast the buns of your shrimp rolls lightly for a nice, warm crunch to frame the shrimp mixture.
