SPICY THAI SHRIMP SALAD

Hot-and-sour, salads lie at the heart of Thai cuisine. Even though they are essentially hot because of the chilie sauce, cayenne peppers and sour with lime juice, the balance of flavors can be such that each is distinctly unique, like a symphony of flavors. This spicy salad is perfect for a special luncheon,  I loved it!
