We have these at a party all of the time our guest love them so do we. The original recipe called for white vinegar but i changed it to red wine vinegar it gave the recipe more caricature and a great taste.

Wow, my friends would love this. We host card parties once a month and are always asked to serve shrimp, this is the dish I will be serving next and I totally agree with your choice of red wine vinegar over white vinegar. Great post. This one gets a 5 from me.


I like it!

I like this recipe a lot and it sounds fantastic! I also like the red wine vinegar, it seems to taste so much better in a recipe.
