Seafood Salad Dressing
From RetiredCook 8 years ago
- 20 minutes to make
- Serves about 1/2 cup
Since my garden is coming into its own and the pasta dish I planned needed a dressing which would cut thru the richness of the clams and caviar and I needed to play with ingredients and managed came up with the winner. Read more After I made the dressing and tried with lettuce leaves, I knew it would go well with shrimp and I had some of these goodies in the freezer. So roasted them using the Garlic Roasted shrimp that we love so much (the method is posted on here) and added to my salad to serve with the pasta. See less

- I’m so pleased with the flavors and how well everything went together – the tangy lemony flavor of the caper brine and lime juice combined with the briny flavor of the clam juice cut through the richness of the shrimp. The dressing can be used for salad or as a dip for seafood. I’m anxious to try it as a dip for calamari……or alligator!! (I have 4 lbs. in the freezer)
- Since I don’t like to deep fry at home, I think I’m going to take a sample of this dressing to a seafood place and order up calamari and try it!!
- Wine suggestion: a Colombard/Sauvignon Blanc blend was a great match.
