Step 1:
How to make a salad with shrimp and corn? Prepare the ingredients. It will be faster and easier to prepare a salad with already boiled and peeled shrimp. They are sold frozen, take them out of the freezer immediately before cooking. Put the canned corn in a colander and let the water drain.
Step 2:
Pour boiling water over the shrimp and leave for 5 minutes. During this time, they will just finally unfreeze. Then drain the water from the shrimp. You can put the shrimp themselves on paper towels to remove excess liquid.
Step 3:
Wash the cucumber, dry it and cut it into small cubes. Be sure to try it, whether it is bitter — such a fruit will spoil the salad.
Step 4:
Boil hard boiled eggs, cool and peel. Cut the eggs into small cubes.
Step 5:
Combine shrimp, corn, eggs and cucumber in a salad bowl.
Step 6:
Season the salad with mayonnaise.
Step 7:
Mix well. The salad is ready. You can serve it to the table. How to do it, decide for yourself. You can simply mix it in a large salad bowl or in portions, in cream bowls or transparent glasses. This salad, laid out in layers with the help of a culinary ring, will also look delicious and beautiful. Garnish the salad with shrimp and herbs. Bon appetit!

If the shrimp are frozen unpeeled, then you need to take them 2 times more by weight.

Boiled rice and olives can be added to this salad if desired. It will turn out more satisfying.

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

How to cook hard-boiled eggs? So that the eggs do not crack when cooking, put them in cold water and put them to cook on a small fire. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then pour cold water and cool. From a sharp temperature drop, the shell will be better cleaned.

How to buy canned corn correctly? Be sure to check the expiration date on the jar. If the container is glass, carefully consider the grains. They should be the same size and color, solid and spotless. The composition should not contain dyes, preservatives and flavor enhancers.
