Sam – Sorry, I have never heard of cooking with urine before.

Karen – Yeah, I am not sure if that was a serious comment or what. As for the crushed red pepper, I would say go for it! I think it would be great.

Donald Cofell – Thanks, I am glad you are enjoying my recipes!

It was a lucky day when I came across your site. I was looking for a Lemon Chicken recipe, and it was great then all the others–Bourboun Chicken-Black Pepper Chicken-Zita and so on, too many to mention. Everything I have tried has been terrific, and your photographs are so appealing, and you methods and instructions are so easy to follow.
The other thing is that the ingredients are not exotic and even living in Canada in a rural area I can get things.
We are not big on desserts, but some of the recipes are wearing down my willpower.
Many thanks

I think this recipe looks AMAZING. In my book, anything with 1/4 of garlic in it has got to be delicious. Even chocolate chip cookies (haha).

Wondering if this would be good with some crushed red pepper, too? I have a wonderful tri-color peppercorn medley I like to use, but it doesn’t have much heat. I live in Spain and am addicted to gambas al ajillo… so I like my shrimp spicy! Am also thinking a splash of toasted sesame oil would be good? Do you think it would warm up the flavor of the shrimp a bit?

I LOVE that somebody commented to this post with “have you tried urine soup” That’s gotta be on my top-10 funniest list.

Hey Robby,

I love the site, the meals you prepare are nothing short of culinary genius! My mouth waters just looking at these dishes that you have bestowed upon the domain of internet users worldwide from the United States all the way to Mozambique(where I represent, what what can I get a witness holla?) Anyhoo, I was just wondering if you know for the salt and pepper shrimp that instead of the salt and pepper for seasoning would urine work? Over here in Mozambique we use animal or human urine in a lot of our dishes either in soup broths or slowly cooked until it is caramelized into a bitter tasting syrup of sorts, sort of like hollandaise sauce but just with urine instead. I know, I know you may think that that is somewhat uncouth but trust me outside of America urine is a delicacy if cooked with a little TLC. Just wondering if you tried or not? Take care Robby and thanks!
