What to add to shrimp salad: an idea from a chef
Shrimp is a fairly common ingredient in many dishes. On their own, these seafoods are quite neutral, but they reveal their flavor best in a salad with other ingredients. The key is to choose the right products.
The idea of making a fresh shrimp salad was published on the Instagram page of MasterChef project participant Tetiana (tetianka_ilina).
