A Delicious Shrimp Dip Recipe
Requested By Restaurant Customers


This restaurant recipe for a Shrimp Dip is a favorite
restaurant recipe of mine, coming close to my hot crab
artichoke dip.


This recipe is very flexible in its use. My restaurant usually
serves it with very good artisan bread or sliced French
bread. It can be used as a dip for fresh vegetables as well.


Shrimp Dip also called Shrimp Dover Pate
Preparation time: 15 minutes. Approximate number it serves is 12.
