Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds small shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 6-8 hot dog buns or potato rolls, buttered and lightly toasted

Directions

  • Melt butter in a skillet set over medium-high heat. Continue to cook, whisking occasionally, until solids at the bottom of the skillet begin to turn golden brown. Watch this carefully, as the brown bits can burn if not closely monitored. Remove from heat and transfer to a heat-proof bowl or measuring cup. Let cool to room temperature. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil. Add shrimp and boil for 3 to 4 minutes or until no longer opaque (slightly longer if using larger shrimp). Drain and chill until completely cool. In a bowl, whisk together egg yolk, lemon juice, and vinegar until smooth and light yellow in color. Very slowly drizzle in vegetable oil, a scant teaspoon at a time, whisking vigorously until completely incorporated before adding more. These first minutes are crucial to forming a stable emulsion, so be sure to add the oil in the tiniest of drizzles, even drops at a time. Once oil is completely incorporated, drizzle in cooled brown butter, whisking vigorously until thick and smooth. Stir in herbs, lemon zest, and salt and pepper to taste. Fold in shrimp until evenly coated. To assemble, split buns (leaving a small hinge) and lightly toast. Spoon shrimp down the center of each roll. Top with additional chives or dill, if desired, and serve at room temperature.

Title:

Shrimp Rolls with Herb Brown Butter Mayo | Love and Olive Oil

Descrition:

This is a poor-man's lobster roll. Not that we're poor, and not that shrimp is really all that cheap, but it's a heckofa lot cheaper than lobster and much easier to prepare too. So maybe it's more of a lazy-man's lobster roll than anything. Poor and lazy aside, what makes this shrimp roll spectacular is the brown butter mayo, which truly is a revelation. Part mayonnaise, part hollandaise, if hollandaise were cold and made with toasted brown butter instead of just melted. It's tangy and buttery and speckled with fresh herbs like chives, parsley, and dill. I figured, since lobster/shrimp rolls are usually tossed with mayo and drizzled with butter, that making a mayo with some butter mixed in would serve double duty. I first tried making the mayo with all brown butter, replacing it 1:1 for the oil in a typical mayo recipe. The result, while decadently buttery, was almost too much so. It was missing the zip that mayo brings to the party. The second try was more of a hybrid, incorporating
