Aromatic Tricks

Remember that when you think shrimp, you should also think watermelon, tomatoes, pink grapefruit, paprika, piment d’Espelette, peanuts, toasted sesame oil and soybean sprouts. All of these ingredients share the same aromatic profile. As you can imagine, these skewers can easily be transformed into a salad, or an Asian style stir-fry cooked in a wok, by substituting toasted sesame oil for the paprika-infused oil.
