Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 What's a good dressing for this? It will have crab, salmon, shrimp, scallops, clams, mussels, and many non-dark-leafy-green veggies. It will be served at, or just below, room temperature.

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Look up recipes for Shrimp Louie Salad dressing. Or heck... I've just used a decent Thousand Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeaconKC Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 A good Ranch might go well with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 An oil and vinegar with some light seasonings in the mix. Maybe salt and fresh pepper but not much more. It sounds like a good salad and the dressing should complement the ingredients, not overpower them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I agree with the oil and vinegar approach. I use a basic Italian-type with seafood salad; a little more herbed than just oil and vinegar. Those old standbys-- variations of Thousand Island-- used in restaurant Louies mask the seafood flavors too much for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 1000 Island: Sour Cream Catsup Sweet Pickle Relish optional Boiled Eggs I don't have a recipe. I just use enough catsup to turn it light pink.

Maybe salt and fresh pepper but not much more. It sounds like a good salad and the dressing should complement the ingredients, not overpower them. I tried the one first. It was GOOOOOOD! Note: make sure of your ingredients before you start. I didn't have mussels and about half as much clams as I would have liked. I use balsamic vinegar and EVOO, Real Salt (Brand name.. Try it You'll like it) and fresh ground black pepper. I also added a pinch of granulated sugar to ease the balsamic vinegar a bit. Washed it down with a bottle of Sioux City Sarsaparilla and finished the whole thing off with an apple fritter. Now I'm back to my new diet to see if I can get back to a decent weight, so...................two weeks of 'healthy', then I'll try one of the other recipes. Thanks, pards.

Subdeacon Joe Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I'd go with some lemon juice, olive oil, dill, salt, pepper, and maybe a little garlic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I have used a creamy Italian dressing on seafood salad and it was good. Costco creamy Italian or Ken’s Creamy Italian. Ken’s is better. Costco more vinegarie, if that’s a word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 1/4 cup Light olive oil, 1/3 cup red wine vinegar, a dash of lime, 1/8 tea spoon each chives, basil, dill, 1/4 tea spoon kosher sea salt, coarse black pepper, and garlic to taste. Mix/shake thoroughly and allow to marinate for a couple of hours, shaking again occasionally. Serve at room temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a DOT drug test after eating poppy seed muffins the day before, they said it would be no problem, it would show some of the evidence but would not look like the drugs. Was a clean test.

Was a clean test. The test levels were raised to differentiate between drug use and dietary use years ago. The excuse “I ate a poppy seed bagel the day before the test.” no carries no weight.
