Instructions

To prepare the corn dog:

  1. In a wide shallow dish, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, salt, honey, buttermilk, water, and egg. Stir the batter until smooth.
     
  2. Skewer the shrimp lengthwise starting at the tail end. Season the shrimp and dredge in seasoned flour.
     
  3. Roll the shrimp in the batter and fry in a 350 degree fryer until golden brown.
     

To prepare the sauce:

  1. Place all the ingredients except for the oil in a blender or food processor and mix at high speed until well blended.
     
  2. While processing, gradually add the oil in a slow, steady stream. Sauce will thicken to a creamy consistency.
