more water and vinegar if needed. - Combine the seasonings (crab or shrimp
boil) and salt in a small bowl. Place shrimp on the steamer in layers,
sprinkling each layer with the seasoning. - Bring to a boil, then cover,
and steam 3 to 4 minutes.
About 'boil' - Substitute ground "all spice" but check label. If it's the
mixture, adjust other spices. You could substitute ground spices, where
possible. Grind the spices into a fine powder using a mini-food mill,
coffee grinder, or mortar and pestle. There are a variety of commercially
blended seafood boils (check near the bottled artichokes, etc., section).
