Shrimp is a little crustacean known for being used to create sensual delicious delights.
The history of shrimp being an aphrodisiac goes back to Casanova who said that shrimp made him good to go for a around of love making. World famous courtesan, Madame Du Barry, served up shrimp in champagne sauce as her dish of seduction. No wonder I like Madame Du Barry so much, she was my kinda woman.
Shrimps are packed with iodine which is important to your sex drive. The iodine helps out the thyroid gland, a gland that regulates your sexual energy. Shrimps are also loaded with omega-3 fatty acids something that promotes good circulation. We all know that good circulation makes for a happy and healthy erection.

Coconut Shrimp
Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup artisan beer
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 24 shrimp

Cookin’ Courtesan Style:
In medium bowl, combine egg, 1/2 cup flour, beer and baking powder. Place 1/4 cup flour and coconut in two separate bowls.
Hold shrimp by tail, and dredge in flour, make sure to shake off excess flour. Next dip in the egg/beer batter; allow excess to drip off. Now roll the shrimp in coconut, and place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a deep-fryer.
Fry shrimp in batches: cook, turning once, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Using tongs, remove shrimp to paper towels to drain. The only thing left to do is serve the shrimp to your lover with your favorite side dishes or just feed him/her the shrimp in bed for a bit of delicious foreplay.
