Do not be embarrassed by such a short time of heat treatment of the squid. This time will be enough for him. Moreover, its peculiarity is that the longer it is cooked, the tougher its meat becomes. Shrimp can be cut in half, but I did not do this. I like to contemplate a whole beauty shrimp more. But if you want to achieve a more or less uniform cut, then instead of royal ones you can simply use smaller shrimp. I recommend cooking such a salad just before the guests arrive. And fill with mayonnaise right before serving.

How to make a salad with shrimp, squid and red caviar? Prepare the products. Squid can be used already peeled without skin or with skin. If you use uncleaned squid, you must first remove the skin from them and remove the insides. Be sure to remove the chitin plates.

Boil the squid. How to boil squid? In a saucepan, boil the water and place the prepared squid carcasses in boiling water. Boil them for two minutes after boiling again. Do not cook longer, they will become tough, rubber and tasteless. Drain and place the meat to cool.

Pre-thaw the shrimp and remove the intestine, which looks like a dark green tube running along the entire back of the shrimp. Mine were immediately cleared. But if it is not removed by the manufacturer, then you need to slightly lift the shrimp on the back and be sure to remove the intestine.

Boil the shrimp. How to boil shrimp? Tip them into salted boiling water with the bay leaf and cook for two minutes after boiling again. Also, like squid, shrimp from long cooking become rubber. Drain the water, remove the bay leaf.

Chill the cooled carcasses of the squid with medium-sized straws.

The last step is to collect the salad in serving salads, mixing shrimp, squid and red caviar. Salt to taste, if necessary, and fill with a drop of mayonnaise. Homemade mayonnaise is ideal here. Garnish the salad with fresh parsley greens. The salad is ready to serve. Enjoy your meal!

Make salads only from fully chilled foods. Made with warm ones, the salad can quickly deteriorate.

Mayonnaise is better to cook on its own. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise. Also, not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt can be used as a dressing. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

The salad will look beautiful and neat if you cut all the ingredients into the same size and shape in pieces (for example, cubes).
