Helpful Tips
- Select Quality Shrimp: For the best flavor and texture, choose high-quality, fresh shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, make sure to thaw them completely and pat them dry to avoid excess moisture. This will ensure your shrimp remain juicy and flavorful in the shot glasses.
- Make the Herb Mayonnaise Ahead of Time: To save time on New Year’s Eve, prepare the herb mayonnaise a day in advance. Simply mix the mayonnaise with your choice of finely chopped herbs, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, then refrigerate it. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully and makes assembly a breeze when your guests arrive.
- Layer for Visual Appeal: When assembling your shot glasses, consider layering the ingredients for an eye-catching presentation. Start with a dollop of herb mayonnaise at the bottom, followed by a few shrimp on top, and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. This not only enhances the visual appeal but also allows guests to enjoy the flavors in each bite.
