Tartar Sauce

Go to Epicurious and print out the Tartar Sauce from Bon Appetit January 1999. OMG it is unbelievably delicious!

Yup this one is awesome, I don't usually rave about recipes but this one is a keeper.

I printed out the Ale-Battered Shrimp recipe that goes with it too. Been getting a hunger for some big Gulf shrimp. Maybe this will get me going - if I can figure out where to get them.

Thank you! Printed out both the tartar sauce and the shrimp recipe. Will make them very very soon.

Really appreciate your taking the time to let us know about them.

Jaymes, Do you know of a place that ships Gulf shrimp (16-20) that's good to deal with?

Thanks, Nick

On a large scale?? Like commercially? Or just a few for your own sweet self?

Okay - I'll assume when you say, "16-20" you're not talking about size (16-20 per pound), and that 16-20 is how many shrimp you want.

Unfortunately, I am leaving for a few days in Mexico first thing in the morning, and won't have time to spend on this right now.

Because fresh Gulf shrimp is available all over Austin, I haven't really done much research on this, but do sort of recall from living in Galveston that shrimp season ends about now.

I can't remember the name of the place in Galveston where we went to buy seafood fresh off the boats (although I can see the place vividly, of course, which is no help to anyone), but I'd suggest that you try calling the Galveston Chamber of Commerce and ask which company has been in business the longest. I'd also call Gaido's in Galveston. It's a famous seafood restaurant and I doubt they ship anything, but they would most certainly know who in town would, if you can pry it out of them. Also, there's a company, Fabian Seafood, 409-765-9522 - that ships seafood all over (although I don't know where you are and if that is included in the area they service), but I think they are wholesale only. Again, you can call and ask them who does what you're interested in.

If I were not leaving town, I'd do a little research and find a good name/company/number for you, but just don't have time.

Good luck. And maybe some of our Houston people will notice this and leap humbly into the breach. They'd have great info, I know.

Good luck.
