The Waffle:

This was one of my first seafood recipes, the first time I made it I was so anxious about over cooking the shrimp, but they’ve never come out overcooked. It is thee easiest tastiest thing I know how to make. If you do serve it over pasta – you’ll probably want a little bread to soak up the amazing brine.

I haven’t changed a thing off the original, there’s nothing to change. I found it in Real Simple Magazine I think back in 2004 or 2005.

One thing I consider doing is cooking dry pasta, rice or couscous in this.
