Loving the deli series so far! I love shrimp so going to have to hit this one up. Not sure if its a universal deli salad but was hoping you could do a whitefish salad? I live in AZ and nobody here has it, I CRAVE it.

[@a2ndopynyn]

Hey Jim, how about a Greek potato salad? I used to get it in Chicago, it was great, with lots of lemon, dill and green onions, using red potatoes, skin-on and quartered. In the meantime, can you tell me if it's okay to use dried dill instead of fresh in this one? And if so, is it the common "half as much" adjustment, or something else? I *love* the tuna salad, made it twice now. Going to make the egg and now the shrimp, too! These are *great* for me since I've just started a keto/carnivore diet, and the veggies you use are all approved cheats for carnivore. It adds a nice variety for summer. Keep 'em coming; this has become one of the very best food channels on KZbin, for sure.

[@1erickjon]

HAM Salad please!!

[@moemerry7657]

​@@a2ndopynyn May you enlighten me as to what a keto/carnivore diet is ? 😅

[@a2ndopynyn]

@@moemerry7657 - A carnivore diet, but I'm allowing myself onions, lettuce, celery and (occasional) avocados, sine they have basically zero calories and are not on the list of 'inflammatory' vegetables.

This brought back so many memories of my mom, thank you for that. We didn't have a lot when I was growing up but a special treat maybe once a month was my mom and I walking up to Foodway Deli in Mastic and buying a 1/4 lb of shrimp salad. She'd savor every bite until it was gone. It was just a simple extravagance that made her feel good during the hard times. Now a cherished memory. She's no longer with us but I will be making this in her honor for sure! Thank you for this one Jim, I'd been waiting for it.

It’s even worse for me. I had major stomach surgery two weeks ago and will remain on the clear liquid diet until June 17. Then gradually add non-clear liquids, and after another month i can have soft foods. I am bingeing food videos now that my stomach is starting to feel better. I am so looking forward to bring able to eat food like thus again - maybe in six months.

I love shrimp salad, and I just made my own a couple of days before this video. I like to flavor the poaching liquid with onion, garlic, sage, and salt. It’s so flavorful, and a decent alternative to the traditional celery/dill flavors.

[@waynegordon2628]

A better way to cook the shrimp is to place them in room temp water heat slowly to 160 F, immediately cover pot and remove from heat. Wait 15 minutes. 160 is temp for ultra pasteurization and no part of shrimp (very outer surface) gets overcooked/rubbery. This is especially good because the shrimp have more time to absorb flavors from the cooking liquid which you can concoct however you like. Tip from old fart hailing from Galveston Bay Texas where we get our shrimp fresh off the boat. Love your channel ❤️

[@daveklein2826]

It's not a better way it's just another way

[@TheCynedd]

Buy a sandwich, taste it (with the taste tester, of course!), and then go back and make it!

[@agentsculder2451]

I would like to put my vote in for a patty melt! One of my very favorite deli sandwiches of all time. I'm really enjoying all these cold deli salads. They're so good in the summer.

[@T0mmyTune]

"Shrimp are caught on the boat and then they're frozen immediately." Fact. I buy straight from the boat here in S.E. GA., and that's exactly how its done. And, we take them home separated into 5lb. bags and keep them frozen until we're ready to enjoy. For a meal, we take 12 per person out of a bag, keeping the rest frozen until next time.

[@shaineybaby1]

I made the chicken salad for my family and it was a hit ! I made it again for my office mates and it blew the top off! Everyone loved it ! Now I’m going to make the shrimp salad next week for every one ! And I’m going to make every Deli Sandwich you make this summer. I’m a semi-retired Chef and never had much interest in sandwich making but you and your channel and family friendly style recipes have inspired me to cook more with joy. Thank you.

Yo Jimmy, don’t forget “Day boat Shrimp”, never frozen. Yes, I agree 99% of the population don’t have access to day boat. I prefer 50/50 mayo and sour cream remoulade and I roast my shrimp to remove more moisture. But you are doing great! Keep going… 🍻

Love the video. Monte cristos and reubens sound great. Here in Alabama, you didn't see reuben sandwiches much until the 1960s. My dad discovered them when he was in the Army near Washington, D.C. in the '50s. He found a deli in Birmingham that sold them and introduced my mom to them. From then on, the reuben was her favorite sandwich, and she would get one anytime we were in a restaurant that served them. I'm the same way -- love me a reuben! I love all your videos, and James cracks me up. He's a teenager. No such thing as him getting too full to eat for at least the next 10 years or so. LOLOLOL. Keep it up! Peace! ❤

One of my biggest pet peeves related to food, is people serving shrimp that have been shelled...but for the tail. OMG why! Why leave the rails on shrimp that are served in a sauce with other ingredients, but with the tails on. So someone thought I was going shove my hand into a wet dish, and peel these tails off myself? Or maybe just cut off the tail and throw out all the tail meat (the best part) with the tail they refused to shell. I hate it SO MUCH!
