We love recreating classic non kosher dishes into kosher ones, like this kosher shrimp cocktail. The combination of sweet and tangy flavors with a little kick from the horseradish was just the perfect addition.

I used to serve this on Shabbos by itself. I will try this recipe, but where can I get kosher unsweetened coconut & if I didn’t use it, would it work without it?
I saw the “kosher shrimp” at my butcher this week. I had mixed feelings about buying it, plus I haven’t heard of anyone using it before. I will take a look again after Passover.
sorrry – but I do not feel the need to ever replicate traif food items. baco bits are not allowed in my house. neither are the imitation shrimp.lobster/crab/etc products. Hashem said not to eat and I do not believe it is necessary to eat the imitations – and possibly temp doing something assur. There is plenty of delicious food in the kosher world to keep us happy. I have used this same exact recipe on chicken for decades and it is delicious. No need to buy fake shrimp.
Love this. I’ve never seen these “shrimp” for sale anywhere! Would love to try them.
Yes imitation Shrimp is made out of white fish and it is shaped as a shrimp, like the fake crab that you find in Kosher Sushi. Check it out here:
