Didn't Care for Ketchup

I hate to disagree with the other reviewers, but we did not care for this.  The ketchup gave the shrimp an off taste.  I misread the recipe and cut the bread into one-ounce sliced; it needed to be only 1/2 ounce per slice.  Doubt I will make again.

Fabulous! I sauteed my cleaned, raw shrimp in a bit of butter and made sure not to overcook them. The sauce ingredients create a great mix of sweet and sour tastes and comes together as a wonderful appetizer. My guests loved the flavors. I will definitely make this again.
