Fish Recipe
Description
This vibrant seafood salad combines tender fish and shrimp with creamy richness and a sharp kick of horseradish. The addition of hard-boiled eggs adds protein and texture, while fresh dill and white peppercorns provide aromatic depth. It is a perfect side dish or light main course for potlucks and family dinners. The balance of savory butter and zesty spices makes it incredibly satisfying. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best flavor experience. It pairs beautifully with crusty bread or alongside roasted vegetables.Ingredients
Directions
-
Rinse the fish fillets in cold water and pat dry. Cook the fish by poaching, baking, or pan-frying until opaque and flaky, then let cool slightly before breaking into flakes.
-
Peel and chop the hard-cooked eggs into small cubes.
-
In a large bowl, combine the flaked fish, shrimp, chopped eggs, grated horseradish, and chopped fresh dill.
-
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the white peppercorns and allspice berries, letting them infuse for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and discard the spices.
-
Pour the warm spiced butter over the fish mixture and toss gently to combine. Let cool to room temperature before serving or refrigerating.
