Steps:
- Put the water, carrot, celery, onion, garlic, lemon, parsley, thyme, and bay leaves in a pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to a simmer, set a cover on top slightly ajar, and cook for 10 to 30 minutes.
- Drop the shrimp into the liquid and turn off the heat. Cook the shrimp, stirring occasionally, until they curl and turn pink, about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes for medium shrimp, 3 minutes for large ones. Drain and cool to room temperature. Peel the shrimp and remove the vein along the curve of the shrimp, if desired. Refrigerate if not serving right away. If refrigerated, bring the shrimp to room temperature 20 minutes before serving.
- To serve put the cocktail sauce in a medium bowl and surround with the shrimp, or loop the shrimp over the edge of an individual cocktail glass and top with the sauce. Garnish with the lemon and serve.
- Optional Tip: To de-vein the shrimp before cooking, hold a shrimp between the thumb and forefinger with the rounded side of the shrimp upward. Place the pointed end of a wooden skewer at the junction of the second and third segments of the shrimp shell, about 1/8-inch down from the top. Gently push the skewer through the shell and then lift up to remove the vein.
- Combine the ketchup, lemon zest and juice, horseradish, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Add hot sauce, if desired. Mix well, then refrigerate until ready to serve.

STEAMED SHRIMP OR SHRIMP COCKTAIL

Steps:
- Pour all ingredients (except shrimp) into a large saucepan. Make sure to first squeeze the juice from the lemons into the mix and then throw the rinds right in there too.
- Bring the liquid to a rolling boil over high heat. Dump in the shrimp and cover the pan with a tight lid.
- After the shrimp have again begun to boil, allow them to go for two minutes, then, stir the shrimp briefly and replace the lid. Boil for three more minutes (shrimp should boil for five minutes, all total).
- Drain and place the shrimp into a large bowl of ice water if you want shrimp cocktail (or just serve them hot).
- If serving as shrimp cocktail, you can go ahead and peel the shrimp after they're cold, or, you can let your guests do it themselves at the table.
- Note: If you overcook shrimp, you will make them rubbery.

Steps:
- Set a steamer basket into a heavy saucepan and pour in enough water, so the steamer basket sits just on top of the water without touching it. Remove steamer basket and bring water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, butterfly the shrimp with a sharp paring knife, carefully running the knife 1 inch down the bottom of the shrimp without cutting all the way through. Press shrimp open.
- Set shrimp into the steamer basket and sprinkle with salt. Set steamer basket over the boiling water (shrimp should not touch the water).
- Steam shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, carefully moving shrimp around using tongues so they cook evenly, about 5 minutes.
- Serve immediately or chill for later use.
