How to Make a Shrimp Salad Sandwich

The secret to a delicious shrimp salad sandwich lies as much in the choice of bread as it does the shrimp salad itself. Even a scrumptious shrimp salad will lose its appeal if it is served up on inferior bread that does little to enhance the flavor. For a delightful and tasty shrimp salad sandwich try this recipe.
