The combo was delicious and my boyfriend agreed. I had made CariannaWA’s shrimp cakes twice before and enjoyed them, but these cakes were more Asian-style with a good deal of flavor without being too spicy.

I went fishing with my boyfriend a stone’s throw from the Gulf the prior day and he caught a saltwater hardhead catfish that he filleted and sautéed in what he calls Hog’s Breath dry marinade. I think he’s pulling my chain… - Lol. I must say, it was tasty and so was the corn he brought over and cooked. It’s at the upper right corner of photo.

My notes:

I coarsely hand-chopped the shrimp and used a medium egg. I used peanut oil and formed the shrimp cakes into three equal portions using a 3-1/4" round cookie cutter and formed with my hands making a small dimple in the middle after chilling in the fridge.

Now that I've made these, I'd prefer a bit more heat for my taste.

Rec: Slaw Tartare

This was very good as well. I sliced-down 6 cups of the cabbage roughly to 1/8 - 1/4" thick. I didn't brine it as I thought there was enough work involved and it would be consumed quickly.

Before folding in the dressing, I scooped a cup of cabbage out to reserve in case it wasn't needed. I was wrong and threw it back in. Only 6 TBS of my beloved Hellmann's mayo! This recipe was right on target with the scaling-down of mayo.

Both of these recipes were provided to me by Curious1.

Edited to say that I used 2 TBS of red wine vinegar in lieu of the sherry vinegar. I found it locally at $10.75 a bottle but nixed the idea (for now - lol).

Thanks again Curious!
