Ingredients

1/2 lb Papa Vince Busiate Pasta
1 lb raw shrimp
1 carrot
2 green onions
1 celery stalk
Papa Vince Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
Papa Vince Lemon Olive Oil
Papa Vince Sea Salt
1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning

How to make

Remove the shells from the shrimp and boil the shells in water for up to 30 minutes. Do not discard the water, remove the shells, add some Papa Vince Sea Salt and use this to make your pasta.
Cut up the vegetables into very fine pieces.
When the pasta has been cooking in the pot for 7-8 minutes, add in the raw shrimp and allow it to cook with the pasta for the last 2 minutes.
Drain the water and put the pasta and shrimp in a serving bowl with the prepared veggies.
In a small bowl mix together 1/2 cup Papa Vince EVOO, 1/2 cup Papa Vince Lemon Olive Oil, 1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce. Combine and pour over the pasta salad.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Can be made the day before and it may be even more flavorful.
Buon Appetito!

Background

The memories of this shrimp salad stayed with me long after I first tasted it. I think that part of the reason is that it was the first time I was introduced to Papa Vince Busiate Pasta. I am not a pasta lover but I love to eat this artisan crafted pasta made with stone ground grain and imported from Sicily. It's not your average box from the grocery store and it makes the perfect dinner whether it's served hot or cold.

Italians don't eat so much pasta salad but here in coastal Alabama this dish is perfect for a light lunch and is a definite crowd pleaser at a pot luck! And it's another excuse to eat some more shrimp! In this recipe it's perfectly paired with the delicate flavor of Papa Vince lemon olive oil. I enjoyed it so much, I just had to learn how to make it myself and you should do the same!

Pure Italian

I have been using Papa Vince olive oil for many years. There is nothing that can compare with it. It is truly a pure olive oil. Take a taste on your tongue and enjoy the peppery flavor you’ll feel. You will not get that from any other olive oil. Make sure to try their other products. All top quality.

Best of the best !

Worth very dime. Fresh clean and a little warm pepper. I have a teaspoon first thing every morning just before breakfast and on our salads always. There’s no better tasting olive oil anywhere. Perfect!!

Good olive oil

I am new to olive oil. I started using it to cut down on butter. I don’t really know what good olive oil should taste like. But, I learned quickly that the olive oils sold at stores nearby are not good. I was told to get a certain brand, which I did not find, but I came upon Papa Vince and decided to try it. The other ones cannot compare.

Great olive oil

I particularly enjoy the lemon olive oil. It is great when used with fish.

Heaven in a bottle

Absolutely wonderful. I enjoy it daily. I would love it if you came out with another salad variety to include more italian herbs for salads as well. A little variation would be nice for us daily users. Thanks. So glad I discovered you. Anthony Lucido. San Diego, California

BEST ONE EVER

Papa Vince always puts out awesome products. Then just as I wonder if they have an idea for something new, I suddenly get a new e-mail about them having something new...this time a Chili sauce. I ordered one, then tasted just a tad bit and ended up ordering three more. All the products I have tried from them are awesome and make me want to buy, If you love coffee, I recommend both flavors of their coffee.

Wonderful product grown in a wonderful country by a wonderful family!!!

The Papa Vince products are all good but we, Joe and I , especially like the Olive oil (natural, virgin) and the balsamic glaze, which adds a delicious twist to many foods (try it, especially on ham, vegetables, and even potatoes)

I have been buying this Evo for several years. I love it. The pepper infused olive oil is especially good when is mixed with a little bit of the balsamic vinegar and regular vinegar. It is definitely a hit for salads and more!!! I add it to a chimichurri sauce that I make for steak and chicken! DELICIOUS!!!
I bought several small bottles as presents. Last month, I had to buy a big bottle for a friend because she loves it and asked me if she could find a bigger size bottle of this oil. Thank you for such excellent product and service!!!!
