French Shrimp Salad
A cool shrimp salad with asparagus and artichokes. Canned artichoke hearts are fine, but fresh cooked can be great.
π Recipe adapted from AllRecipes
Cook the asparagus in boiling salted water until tender.
Remove and cool under cold water.
Reserve six stalks and cut remaining asparagus into 1 inch pieces.
Cook and clean shrimp.
Again reserve the best six and dice the remainder.
In a bowl, combine shrimp and asparagus, mix gently with mayonnaise and lemon juice.
In a separate bowl, marinate the artichoke hearts in 1 cup French dressing.
Place shrimp and asparagus in an attractive shallow bowl.
Garnish with sieved egg and arrange reserved asparagus on top to resemble the spokes of a wheel.
Drain the artichoke bottoms and garnish each with a dollop of mayonnaise, 1 whole shrimp and 1 parsley sprig.
Arrange them around the salad.
