Kivado Crostad Recipes

Kivado Crostad

Brightly sweet kiwi provides a vibrant counterpoint to the salty pancetta, spicy jalapeno, and rich, buttery avocado in this uniquely tasty dish. A drizzle of balsamic glaze provides the perfect finishing touch. Most of the avocado sold in supermarkets is still in its unripened stage. To ripen, place avocados in a paper bag and set aside at room temperature for 2-4 days. When the fruit is soft to the touch, it is ready for use.

Louisiana BBQ Landshark Jumbo Shrimp
Instructions
Cleaning Shrimp
  1. Leave the head on and use a paring knife. Cut the top of the shell on the tail from front to back, only going thru ½ of the tail meat. Carefully wash the trail out of the tail with running water in the sink.
Making Compound Butter
  1. In a food processor puree the onion and garlic until fine. Add all of the first nine ingredients and process until all is blended.
Cooking
  1. Melt compound butter on medium heat and add shrimp. Lining shrimp up all facing the same direction will make them easier to flip. Cook shrimp in compound butter for four minutes on each side and remove from pan. Line shrimp on a serving platter. Add Landshark Lager to butter mixture and flame. Once reduced (about 3 minutes), pour mixture over shrimp and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with French bread for dipping.
