Step by Step guide
Step 1
Prepare the necessary ingredients.
Step 2
Remove the heads and the digestive tract from the shrimp.
Step 3
Add them to boiling salted water, and once the water comes back to a boil, cook for an additional minute. Then transfer them to ice water to stop the cooking process.
Step 4
Place the cooled shrimp on paper towels and peel off their shells. There's no need to peel the shrimp while they're raw, as cooking them in their shells helps them retain their shape and juices.

Mix ketchup and soy sauce.
Step 6
Add horseradish.
Step 7
Add lemon juice.
Step 8
Add black pepper and Tabasco sauce to taste.
Step 9
