  1. A very good traditional Newburg. I adjusted the setting for 4 people. I suggest you cut the salt to 1/4 tea and I like my food a little salty. I used a 1/4 cup of regular sherry and a 1/4 cup of cream sherry and it was spot on. I used about 30 Jumbo Shrimp that came out of the gulf that morning. We are lucky to live so close to the water here in N. Fla. Very rich, but I can see we will make this every couple of mons for sure. Just be careful of the amount of salt, you can always add it later.
     
  2. I was looking for a substitute for Lobster Newburg over Popovers and since I had shrimp instead of lobster I thought this would work out fine. It was good and soaked into the popovers well. I think it could have used a bit more kick like maybe some Old Bay or a small tad of cayenne. Will do it again. Thanks for posting.
     
  3. My mother made this when I was a little girl. I would like to suggest that you use smaller shrimp. They are more flavorful and you get more shrimp in all of that yummy sauce.
     
  4. I used lg. shrimp and it was way more than 12. I also added peas to the sauce and had over phyllo cups. It was so delicious! My DH raved and raved for days after having this. We will have again for a special occasion dinner along with pasta!
     
  5. As usual, I wasn't paying attention and I added the sherry to the dry ingredients in the skillet and generated a famous-looking rouge goo-ball! But you know what? I didn't panic and it didn't matter. As soon as I began adding the cream and whisking, it did just fine, nice and smooth. This is a fine Shrimp Newburg -- much better than I've had in restaurants. Thanks for posting the recipe, Tonkcats.
