Ingredients
To poach the seafood
- 5 prigs dill fresh
- 1 lemon sliced
- 4 garlic peeled, cloves
- 1 tbsp peppercorns
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1½ lb (750g) seafood I used shrimp, lobster and crab meat but mussels and clams can be used too
for the dressing
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- 2-3 tsp honey
- 1-2 tsp lemon juice fresh
- 2 tbsp dill finely chopped, fresh
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
For the pasta salad
- 1 lb (500g) pasta
- 1 medium red onion finely chopped
- 3 celery finely chopped, ribs
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
- Add a sliced lemon, fresh dill, garlic cloves, a teaspoon of peppercorns and a tablespoon of salt. Add the seafood and poach until just cooked.
- The cooking time will depend on the seafood used. Peeled shrimp, mussels and clams will cook in 1 minute. Lobster tails will take 5-7 minutes, depending on the size.
- Remove the seafood with a slotted spoon then rinse under cold water and allow to drain.
- Remove all the aromatics from the water then add the pasta and cook until al dente.
- Drain in a colander, rinse under cold water and allow to come to room temperature while you prepare the rest of the salad.
- Stir together the mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, seasonings and finely chopped herbs.
- Combine the pasta, finely diced vegetables, seafood and dressing. Toss to combine then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- At this point you can serve the pasta salad immediately or cover and place in the fridge for up to 2 days. I like to refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving.
