Preparation

Step 1

1.Bring a large pot of salted water to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and poach until just cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes. Drain the shrimp in a colander and transfer to a bowl of ice water. When the shrimp are cool enough to handle, transfer them to a paper-towel-lined sheet tray to dry.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crème fraiche, dill, onion, lemon juice and zest. Add the shrimp and toss, making sure everything is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the crisp bread.
