Brighten up mealtime with our delicious sous vide garlic lime shrimp. To keep the shrimp firm and plump, we’ve added baking soda to the marinade, a trick which alters the pH level of the shrimp, helping them retain their shape. Served with a watermelon salsa dressed in sharp lime juice and velvety olive oil, this dish emanates ceviche-style freshness.
