Shrimp Cocktail
Shrimp cocktail is definitely a dish best made at home, and for two good reasons. First, you control the quality of the ingredients—crucial when it comes to seafood. Second, making your own cocktail sauce is incredibly easy and infinitely better than store-bought. I just realized how deep the American obsession with that sauce runs, and honestly, I get it. This is the perfect dish for a romantic occasion or when you just want to treat yourself. And the best part? Both the poached shrimp and the cocktail sauce can be made in advance.
