Answers: so, i've got shrimp here for xmas. forgot to buy cocktail sauce. and the homemade recipe calls for horseradish, which i don't have on hand. can anyone help?!!
A few tablespoons of ketchup
1/4 of lemon squeezed
dash worchestershire
2 or 3 dashes hot sauce
1 teaspoon powdered hot mustard
No...shrimp contail sauce is pretty much 2 parts ketchup and 1 part horseradish...
Perhaps you could just use melted butter, or something with lime juice...
NO help really, unless perhaps you have some wasabee
it is basically made from horseradish
or fast food horsey sauce (arbys)
might work
sorry
Here's a recipe someone posted on Recipe Zaar. She specifically doesn't like horseradish, but the ingredients here would be a good guideline to start with for ideas on what to use. The ketchup is going to provide the tang, sweetness, and tomato flavor. Use the spices to liven it up!
Cocktail Sauce Without Horseradish:
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Mix everything together and chill for at least one hour before serving if desired.
If you like lots of lemon juice you can add another teaspoon for more zip.
Use some hot sauce in place of the horseradish. It will not be quite the same but it will be close.
