Topsail White Shrimp is delicious in August -- or any time of year
When I was growing up on Topsail Island we waited anxiously for “white shrimp” to come into season. Every August boats trolled off the shore directly in front of our home in search of the largest, most succulent shrimp species North Carolina has to offer. Topsail White Shrimp Spaghetti is our tribute to this most delicious crustacean.
If you happen to live along the shore, go for the freshest-caught shrimp you can find. If not, previously frozen shrimp make a fine substitute. Choose raw, wild-caught shrimp when you can find them – but again, this recipe is flexible enough to adapt to farm-raised as well.

One of our favorite recipes from our first cookbook is Topsail Shrimp Spaghetti. It has a red sauce and we wondered what would happen if we used an Alfredo sauce and fresh tomatoes.
