Have you ever roasted shrimp? Drop what you're doing RIGHT NOW and try it. Yes, I know you might be at work or feeding your child or enjoying a summer activity but I don't care. This is too important. Go buy some shrimp and roast it. It's incredible! It's fast, and easy, and it cooks the shrimp P E R F E C T L Y. I've seen Ina do it, and recently a fellow food blogger gave it a try and that pushed me over the edge. I hope I do the same for you. It will change your life. Your welcome.

Um, yum! Do you buy yellow miso at your everyday grocery store? By asking that question I fully realize I'm offically outing myself. "Hi, my name is Mary and I am not a seasoned cook."
ReplyDeleteNot a stupid question at all! I buy mine at a local fish market. I'm sure you could get it at an Asian market too? Otherwise you can order online:
