CALDO DE CAMARóN
There is a multitude of ways shrimp soup is made in Mexico, and each region can have its own recipes. In the Huasteca region, for example, there is a version where corn dough is diluted in water and added to the soup to form a slightly thick soup, called Huatape. I hope you enjoy this delicious recipe.

Steps:
- Place shrimp peels, onion, garlic, and bay leaf in a saucepan with the 5 cups of water. Turn on the heat to medium-high. Once it starts boiling, reduces heat to simmer for about 6-8 minutes, then set aside.
- While the broth is simmering, place the tomatoes, onion, and garlic on a hot griddle to roast. Turn from time to time to have an even roasting. This step will take about 8 minutes. Remove the garlic promptly, since it takes less time to roast; if you leave it too long it will burn and have a bitter taste.
- Once the tomatoes, onion, and garlic are ready, place into a blender along with the chipotle peppers (if using). Process until you have a fine pure. If needed, chop the tomatoes to avoid having big chunks in the salsa before placing in the blender.
- In a medium-size pot, heat the oil at medium temperature, add the carrots, and cook for a couple of minutes. Then, stir in the potatoes and cook for 6-7 minutes, stirring often to keep them from sticking to the pan.
- Pour the tomato sauce using a strainer, bring to a boil, and then lower the heat to simmer for 10 minutes. Then, using a strainer add the shrimp broth, stir in the shrimp and gently simmer for 5-7 minutes, depending on the size of the shrimp. The shrimp will be a light orange color but still look firm; do not overcook or the shrimp will have a rubbery texture. Add the epazote and cook for 2 more minutes, then season with fresh ground pepper and salt. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Warm oil in a large stockpot over medium high heat and add onions and peppers. Cook for 3 minutes, or until vegetables soften.
- Add in sofrito, shrimp tails, garlic, salt, cilantro, and thyme. Saute for another 3-4 minutes. Add in water and simmer water for about 10-15 minutes.
- Turn off heat to allow shrimp broth to cool.
- Once the shrimp broth has cooled slightly, drain the pot in a colander over a VERY LARGE bowl or another pot to RESERVE THE SHRIMP BROTH.
- In the same pot warm oil and we'll build the sofrito sauce by adding in chopped onions, chopped peppers, garlic and sofrito.
- Allow this to cook for about a minute or until fragrant (stirring frequently to keep it from burning). Next, add in salt, pepper, oregano, sazon, and a pinch of cumin.
- After twenty seconds, add in the tomato sauce and about a quarter cup of the raw shrimp and set the rest of the shrimp to the side until the end. Allow the sofrito sauce to infuse with the shrimp for about thirty seconds before gently adding in the shrimp broth.
- Higher heat and bring shrimp broth to a boil; add in rice. Lower heat to medium or until the shrimp broth is at a steady and gentle simmer.
- Allow the rice to cook, stirring it occasionally.
- Once rice is tender and cooked through, add in the remaining raw shrimp and chopped cilantro. Cook an additional five minutes, or until shrimp is pink and cooked through.
- Taste for seasoning.

SPANISH GARLIC SHRIMP (GAMBAS AL AJILLO)
Every Spanish restaurant serves this dish of shrimp cloaked in garlic-infused olive oil with smoky hints of paprika and a touch of sweetness from sherry. Make sure you have all your ingredients together before you head to the stove since, start to finish, this cooks in mere minutes. It's great for a tapas party, since you can prep everything ahead of time. Just spoon the shrimp and sauce over toasted bread and sprinkle more cayenne and parsley on top to enjoy.

ONE-POT SPANISH-STYLE SHRIMP AND CHORIZO PASTA
Fideos are very thin noodles that are traditionally cooked right in the sauce, allowing them to soak up maximum flavor. Both angel hair pasta and capellini are great substitutes if you don't have access to Spanish fideos. To create a nutty, smoky layer, the noodles are first toasted with olive oil and chorizo. A good-quality bottled clam juice is important here, since it creates the briny broth that accentuates the shrimp and enhances the overall seafood flavor; the Bar Harbour brand has a very clean and naturally briny clam flavor.
