Subject: Shrimp Salad
Phaedrus,
It's me again. I am looking for a shrimp recipe that my wife used to make.
She grew up in New York state. She called this "Shrimp Salad". It was made
with elbow macaroni, boiled shrimp, mayo, and I think, some onions, pickles,
salt and pepper to taste, and I don't know what else. I tried making this
putting in what I thought it had, but it just was not the same. I found lots
of Shrimp Salad recipes, but I did not find any made with elbow macaroni.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bobby
Hi Bobby,
I found lots of recipes. Over 200. I had to narrow it down by specifying only
those with mayonnaise, but that still left a lot of recipes. Thing is, most shrimp
salad recipes call for those little "baby" canned shrimp rather than fresh boiled
shrimp. Your wife may have substituted. See below for a sampling.
