This curry shrimp spread has just the right amount of spice. It’s an easy and impressive appetizer that only takes minutes to assemble. Served with crackers, it’s kind of addictive!

I call this retro because I’m pretty sure it’s a recipe that my mom got in the 1960s. That, and something about it just screams cocktail party. It was at every event my mom hosted…from bridge groups to neighborhood parties. And while I wouldn’t have dreamed of eating cold shrimp in any other setting, something about this creamy, flavorful dip hit all the right notes. Plus, it had a funny name: Shrimp Pu Pu.
We prefer to call it dip. Or spread. Or just yum!
It’s super simple.
