MARINATED
GRILLED SHRIMP SALAD
The
intense flavors of ginger, soy sauce, mustard,
and garlic find balance with the delicate
fruit of dry white wine.
2/3
cup White Meritage or other dry white wine
1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 to 4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 inch fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon peanut oil or olive oil
2 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard
12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into matchstick-size
pieces
1 medium cucumber, cut into matchstick-size
pieces
1 small head radicchio, shredded
2 Belgian endives, thinly sliced crosswise
Enoki mushrooms, root ends cut off (optional)

Combine
wine, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sugar, oil, and
mustard in a large bowl. Pour 3/4 cup of the soy
mixture into a small saucepan. Bring just to boiling;
reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes
or until reduced to about 1/3 cup of liquid; set
aside.
Rinse
shrimp, pat dry. Transfer shrimp to bowl with
remaining soy mixture; toss to coat. Cover and
let stand 15 minutes. Drain, reserving marinade.
Heat
a charcoal, gas or indoor electric grill to medium
heat. Lightly oil a grilling tray (if using charcoal
or gas) and arrange shrimp on tray in a single
layer. Grill shrimp for 5 to 8 minutes or until
opaque, turning once. (If your electric grill
cooks both sides at the same time, adjust timing
accordingly.) Or, to broil, place shrimp on a
lightly oiled broiling rack and broil 4 to 6 inches
from heat for 6 to 8 minutes or until opaque,
turning once.
To
serve, toss together carrot, cucumber, radicchio,
and endive in a large bowl. Add the reduced soy
mixture and toss to coat. Top with shrimp. If
desired, garnish with enoki mushrooms.
Makes
