METHOD

For Poaching the Shrimp:

  1. Bring a large pot of water to boil

  2. When the water is boiling, add enough kosher salt to season the water in the same manner as you would if cooking pasta

  3. Add some aromatics to the water. Use the stems from the parsley and cilantro, the skins from the onion, and any other vegetable scraps that you might have on hand to flavor the water

  4. Meanwhile, prepare a large bowl with ice and some water. This will be used to stop the cooking and cool down the shrimp after they have been poached. Set the ice water aside

  5. When the water has returned to a boil, lower the heat to a simmer and add the cleaned shrimp. Cook for about four minutes.

  6. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon or spider and immediately plunge into the ice water. Allow to cool completely.

  7. Drain the cooked shrimp and keep until ready to use for the salad.

For the Shrimp Rolls

  1. Combine all ingredients, except the rolls and butter in a large bowl. Mix gently to combine thoroughly.

  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter. When the butter is foamy, add the rolls cut-side down. Toast until golden. Repeat as necessary using the remaining butter

  3. To serve: fill each roll with the shrimp salad. Enjoy!
