7daysinaweek Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Quick lunch today and one I have not had in an age. Picked up four pots of Morecambe Bay Potted Shrimp at the Southport flower show at the weekend. On cold brown buttered toast with salt and pepper. Delicious! 🦐 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is clarified non salted butter. The butter is very creamy and not too salty which must come from the shrimp. It acccompanies the shrimp wonderfully and does not overpower the shrimp. It is a long time since that I have had it. Once tasted never forgotten and for me it has to be the purist form which is toasted thin or medium brown bread left cold, then buttered, then add the shrimp with all the butter from the pot and season with salt and pepper. @harrycatcat1 You seem to have a wide ranging palate, give some a go, much like olives you will love them or hate them. It would appear Scully is a man of impeccable taste. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
