Shrimp AguachileChef Zach Schulz of Shake Shack | New York, NY |
Shrimp—a Gulf Coast staple—is prepared here in its raw form, marinated with lime and The Perfect Purée Red Jalapeño Puree. The chile’s heat is balanced by olive oil and the natural fattiness of the shrimp, while The Perfect Purée Carmelized Pineapple Concentrate adds depth and sweetness. Served with Fritos Scoops, this playful take on aguachile nods to regional snacking culture, blending the freshness of coastal seafood with the salty crunch of a classic American favorite.
