Shrimp salad is a refreshing dish made with tender, cooked shrimp tossed in a creamy dressing with crunchy vegetables and herbs. The shrimp are typically boiled or grilled until just cooked through, then chilled and mixed with ingredients like celery, red onion, bell peppers, and fresh herbs such as dill or parsley. The dressing is often a combination of mayonnaise, lemon juice or vinegar, Dijon mustard, and seasonings like salt, pepper, and paprika. The salad is served chilled, either on a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich, or as a topping for crackers or crostini. It’s a light and satisfying seafood dish perfect for warm weather meals.
