POTTED SHRIMP BY VINCENT PRICE
This spread comes from "A Treasury of Great Recipes", a cookbook put out by that master of the macabre, Vincent Price, and his wife, Mary, in the mid-1960's. The cookbook is full of great recipes by Mr and Mrs. Price and their friends, famous and otherwise. The original cookbook is a highly prized collectible now, but I believe it was reprinted in 1995. Very rich, it may be something of an aquired taste. I think it is the bomb! (the daughter just darted me a look that meant, "Mom. you're too old to be talking like that!")

Steps:
- Melt butter and add spices. Mix with shrimp, making sure shrimp is covered by butter mixture, adding more melted butter if needed. Place in a small bowl or crock and chill at least 2 hours in the refrigerator. Take out of fridge 20 minutes before serving to allow it to soften a little. Will keep several days or longer - potting is a centuries-old method of food preservation. Spread on water crackers, use in omelets, etc.
- This is the traditional potted shrimp. *The mace is traditional, but can be skipped, if desired. Other spices and herbs (choppped parsley is good)can be added, just be sure all is covered with melted butter.

Steps:
- 1. Melt all but 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat without boiling, about 4 minutes, and skim off any foam that rises to the surface. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- 2. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat in a medium skillet. Cook the garlic, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring frequently, until starting to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Pour in the wine and cook, stirring, until the liquid is nearly completely evaporated, about 3 minutes. Pour in the lemon juice and cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the salt and clarified butter and remove from the heat.
- 3. Spoon the shrimp into a small baking dish. Stir in the parsley and pour the melted butter from the skillet over the shrimp just to cover. Reserve any remaining butter in the refrigerator. Chill the shrimp until the butter is solid, 2 hours.
- 4. Pulse the shrimp mixture in a food processor until pureed. Return the mixture to the baking dish. Warm the refrigerated reserved butter in the microwave just until liquefied, about 10 seconds. Pour over the shrimp to cover and refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.
- 5. Remove the dish from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving. Spread on crackers or toasted baguette slices and garnish with additional parsley.

Steps:
- The day before, melt the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat and add the cayenne pepper and nutmeg. Add the prawns or shrimps to the pan, stir to warm through, and season.
- Using a large slotted spoon, remove the prawns and press them into your ramekins (or serving dish). Allow to cool, then chill for 10-15 mins or until set. Once set, pour the leftover butter in the saucepan over the prawns to cover (you may need to reheat to melt). Return to the fridge to set overnight.
- Before serving, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut the ciabatta into thin slices, drizzle with olive oil and toast on a tray in the oven. Once golden, arrange on a serving board with the potted prawns and lemon wedges alongside.

SPICED POTTED SHRIMP
In the history of British cuisine, potting perishable foods - that is, sealing ingredients in a crock under a thin layer of clarified butter - was a way to preserve them. Thanks to modern refrigeration, preservation is no longer the point, but luscious, buttery potted dishes are still popular throughout Britain. Here, diced shrimp are aggressively seasoned with anchovy, celery seed, lemon zest and garlic before being sealed into ramekins. Potted shrimp is a very rich dish, best served in small quantities with hot toast on the side to melt the solidified butter back into a creamy sauce. Or, scoop out the shrimp and butter and mix it with hot pasta to create an instant scampi-like dish.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Let cook, skimming the foam off the top of the butter, until the white milk solids fall to the bottom of the pan. Carefully pour about half the clarified butter into a measuring cup with a spout and set aside. Leave remaining butter and all those milk solids in the skillet.
- Add anchovy, thyme, lemon zest, mace, salt, pepper, cayenne and celery seed to skillet. Stir in shrimp and cook over medium heat until pink, about 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in garlic.
- Divide shrimp among 8 ramekins, top with the remaining herbed butter from the skillet and chill until set, about 1 hour.
- Pour reserved clarified butter on top and chill until set, about 15 minutes, or up to 5 days (or freeze for up to 1 month). Remove ramekins from the refrigerator at least 20 minutes to 1 hour before serving with lemon wedges, Tabasco and hot toast.
