This recipe is a very tasty shrimp dish, the key to which is making sure that it stays moist and does not become dried out.

4.		Place a portion of the bread crumb mixture on top of each shrimp.
5.		Pour broth around shrimp, making sure not to cover shrimp and wash away bread crumb mixture.

7.		Transfer shrimp to serving plates and pour a little of the juice from the baking pan on top. Cut lemon into wedges and serve shrimp with lemon wedges.

Summer's Bounty: Tomatoes
Mid-July through August is sometimes referred to as the Dog Days of Summer, but for me they are something special, the Tomato Days of Summer.

The Perfect Scoop
I must start this review off with an apology. There is no excuse for waiting until mid-August to post a review of The Perfect Scoop. If this is the first you are hearing of this excellent book on all things ice cream, then I have let over two months of prime ice cream making and eating time this summer slip through your grip.
