Scandinavian Shrimp Salad With Dill And Cornichons Recipes

SCANDINAVIAN SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan; add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-high and cook until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together pickling liquid, mustard, and sugar. Whisk in oil; season with salt and pepper. Stir in fennel fronds. Transfer potatoes to a bowl with a slotted spoon, and toss with 2 tablespoons dressing.
• Return water to a boil; add shrimp. Remove from heat and let stand, stirring occasionally, until shrimp are bright pink and opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer to an ice-water bath until cool. Drain well. Toss lettuce and sliced fennel with 2 tablespoons dressing; arrange on a platter. Top with potatoes, shrimp, cornichons, and eggs. Drizzle with remaining dressing; serve.

SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Bring 5 quarts of water, 3 tablespoons salt, and the lemon to a boil in a large saucepan. Add half the shrimp and reduce the heat to medium. Cook uncovered for only 3 minutes or until the shrimp are barely cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl of cold water. Bring the water back to a boil and repeat with the remaining shrimp. Let cool; then peel, and devein the shrimp.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, wine or vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and dill. Combine with the peeled shrimp. Add the red onion and celery and check the seasonings. Serve or cover and refrigerate for a few hours.

ROASTED SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel and devein the shrimp. Place them on a sheet pan with the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss together. Spread the shrimp on one layer and roast for 6 to 8 minutes, just until pink, firm and cooked through. Allow to cool for 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, orange zest, orange juice, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. When the shrimp are cool, add them to the sauce and toss. Add the dill, capers, and red onion and toss well. The flavors will improve if you allow the salad to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Otherwise, chill and serve at room temperature.

SUNNY'S SHRIMP, CORN AND BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Skewer the shrimp onto metal skewers and place on a baking sheet.
• Whisk together 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, the juice of 1 lime, 1 tablespoon of the minced garlic, a big pinch of pink Himalayan salt and freshly ground pepper to taste in a large bowl. Pour the marinade over the shrimp and stir thoroughly to coat both sides of the shrimp. Let marinate for 20 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Grill the corn until slightly charred and grill marked, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Let cool, and then cut the kernels off the cob.
• Grill the shrimp until grill marked and pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Let cool, and then remove from the skewers and slice in half crosswise.
• Combine the corn kernels, beans, shrimp, cilantro and pink Himalayan salt to taste in a large bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the juice of 2 limes, the remaining 1 tablespoon minced garlic and freshly ground pepper to taste. Gently toss to combine.
