Tips:
- For the freshest seafood, try to purchase it from a reputable seafood market or directly from a fisherman.
- If you're using frozen seafood, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or place it in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes.
- Don't overcook the seafood. Shrimp and scallops cook very quickly, so be careful not to overcook them or they will become tough.
- Use a light hand when seasoning the seafood. Too much salt or pepper can overpower the delicate flavor of the seafood.
- Serve the salad immediately after it's made. This will ensure that the seafood is at its best and the flavors are fresh and bright.
