[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 326030, member: 136"]Cluttered, they're an acquired taste for most Americans! Traditional potted shrimps usually involve the tiny brown shrimp found around Morecambe Bay (in NW England) though nowadays, other small shrimp may be substituted. The shrimp are first boiled (traditionally in sea water) and the shrimp are then shelled and mixed with spices (mace, nutmeg, a bit of pepper, and sometimes a small amount of cloves.) The mixture is then packed in jars of various types for commercial sale. (Today, it is often found in plastic containers.) Served on crackers or toast, almost like a spread... My American taste buds can't handle it, but I know quite a few of my friends from the UK love it!
