Betty’s Baked Coconut Shrimp With Jamaican Jerk Seasoning Recipe
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make light Baked Coconut Shrimp with Jamaican Jerk Seasoning (with the "help" of her grandson, Carter). This is a great alternative to fried shrimp. The shrimp is dredged in a Jamaican jerk seasoning mix, then dipped in egg white, dredged in a mixture of coconut, panko breadcrumbs, and paprika. Finally, it is sprayed with cooking oil spray and baked in the oven to a golden brown.
Ingredients:
1 pound unpeeled, raw large white shrimp
1 to 2 egg whites
¼ cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon Jamaican jerk seasoning
2/3 cup sweetened flaked coconut
2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon paprika
cooking oil spray
Wash and peel 1 pound of shrimp, leaving the tails on, and set aside. In a small mixing bowl, beat or whisk 1 or 2 egg whites until frothy, and set aside. In a small, shallow dish, mix together ¼ cup cornstarch and 1 tablespoon Jamaican jerk seasoning, and set aside. In another small, shallow dish, mix together 2/3 cup flaked coconut, 2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs, and 1 teaspoon paprika, and set aside. Dredge shrimp, one at a time, in cornstarch mixture. Dip in egg whites, and dredge in coconut mixture. Place the shrimp on a broiler pan that has been sprayed with cooking oil spray. When all shrimp are placed on broiler pan, spray the top of the coated shrimp with cooking oil spray. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes. (I baked mine for 10 minutes, and then turned the oven off and let them sit in the oven for a couple of minutes.) Serve immediately, while hot. I served mine with Curried Rice and Steamed Snow Peas, both of which will be on videos uploaded later. Enjoy!!!
Note: I received the Jamaican jerk seasoning as a prize in a contest from another YouTube member, Jimbo Jitsu , so "Thanks, Jimbo!" for that. I think all of you will find Jimbo Jitsu's channel interesting. If you have time, I think you will enjoy taking a look at his channel! --Betty

What Is The Role Of Sugar In Your Cooking?
Do you love sugar but have to cut back? Does your low sugar diet preclude your favorite desserts and make your food taste bland? If so, not to worry, there are ways to bake even your favorite desserts using less sugar, with or without sugar substitutes? It just requires some experimentation and a working knowledge of what sugar actually does in a recipe. Once you understand what the role of sugar is in your baking and cooking, you can make appropriate adjustments and substitutes. For more help visit to: www.classic-dessert-collection.com.In most types of cooking, sugar is only there for the flavor - the sweetening power. You can easily reduce the amount of sugar that you use in fruit compote, for instance, and you'll probably find that the fruit flavors are far more intense. Natural sugars like fructose in fruit and lactose in milk a lot of nutritional value along with the crabs and calories. Using natural sweeteners like apple juice is one way to add sweetness while cutting back on granulated sugar. Sugar substitutes are another way to add sweetness to drinks and food without adding calories or carbohydrates. However, baking with sugar is a different story. Granulated sugar does more than sweeten baked goods. It can affect volume, moisture texture and color of the finished cakes, cookies, pies and candy. Substituting other ingredients for sugar in baked goods can cause your baked goods to fail - or at least come out far differently than you expect. If you are using sugar substitutes in baking, or trying to cut back on sugar in your baked goods, here are some tips to help you out.
