How to Make Shrimp Salad
- Boil 1 pound of shrimp in salted water until pink and cooked through (about 3-5 minutes).
- Immediately transfer shrimp to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and ensure they stay tender. Let cool completely.
- Once cool, peel and devein the shrimp. Roughly chop.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped sweet pickle relish, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard, 1 tablespoon Gullah Luv seasoning (or substitute with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper), 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/2 cup finely chopped celery.
- Gently fold in the chopped shrimp.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more Gullah Luv seasoning, salt, pepper, or sugar to your liking.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of finely chopped hard-boiled eggs and additional mayonnaise, mustard, and sugar if desired, to reach your preferred consistency and flavor.
- Taste again and adjust seasoning one last time.
- Serve the shrimp salad chilled on a bed of crisp lettuce.
- Garnish with fresh tomato slices and a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley.
