Salmon
and Shrimp Salad
Salad
1 head crisp green lettuce, shredded
1 head lollo rosso lettuce or radicchio, shredded
1 pound salmon, poached, skinned, boned and cubed
12 ounces shrimp, defrosted
3 cups halved button mushrooms
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
Mayonnaise
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon sunflower oil
1 tablespoon olive oil
grated zest of 1 orange
Mayonnaise
It is not difficult to make mayonnaise, and when it
is freshly made it is particularly delicious. Beat
the egg yolks and orange juice together. Beat constantly,
adding the oil drop-by-drop. Ensure the oil has been
incorporated in the egg yolk before adding the next
drop. When the mayonnaise starts to thicken and about
half the oil has been used, start adding the oil more
quickly, teaspoon-by-teaspoon. Season. Dilute, if
necessary, with a few more drops of orange juice.
Divide the lettuces between 4 serving glasses or
bowls. Mix the salmon, shrimp, mushrooms and mayonnaise
together. Divide between the bowls and sprinkle with
pine nuts.
