The Husband has been craving a Shrimp Roll and they're surprisingly simple to make. A lot of recipes I looked up called for Tarragon in the mix while others left all seasoning and let the Shrimp be the main flavor. I do not have fresh New England Shrimp in my house so I decided to add the Tarragon to give it an extra flavor. Don't do it! I wasn't familiar with Tarragon before this and now I know why, it tastes like liquorice. And while I don't like the taste normally, it especially does not blend with a Shrimp Roll. Dill or Thyme would have been a better choice.
Ingredients:
6 Shrimp
1 Tbsp Mayonaise
1 Tbsp Celery, Chopped
1/4 Lemon, Juiced
2 Leaves Tarragon, Chopped
2 Hotdog Rolls
Boil the shrimp until they are pink throughout. Transfer to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking. Cut each shrimp into 4 or 5 pieces and add to a bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Mix well.
Fill the hotdog roll with the mixture and enjoy. This is a light and refreshing quick lunch option served with a side of chips. Now I want to go to Maine!
