One 14 oz. bottle of Heinz Ketchup
4 cups orange juice, with pulp
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 tsp LA Hot Sauce (or to taste)
2 TBSP Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
2 medium red onions, slice very thin and marinated (see below)
1 1/2 lbs. medium boiled shrimp, each cut into 2/3 pieces To marinate red onions, wash them in hot water, drain and allow them to cool to room temperature in a medium-sized bowl. Next add a third of the lemon juice and a third of the salt. Toss the onions well and then wash as before. Do this procedure two more times. (It will remove the strong flavor from the onions.) After the last washing, allow the onions to cool and then mix them with the remaining ingredients. Use some of the onions as a garnish. To serve: place about 3/4 of the mixture in an appropriately-sized bowl and top with about 1/2 cup freshly-popped popcorn. Unique and delicious! The following recipe is a Wilson family favorite . . .
