*Raekjusalat" in Icelandic, this shrimp salad recipe is from *Cool Cuisine* (Traditional Icelandic Cuisine) by Nanna Rognvaldardottir. Per her intro, "Salad dips like this have been very popular in Iceland since the 1960s. They are usually served on crackers at parties or used as sandwich filling much like in the U.S." (This recipe begins w/eggs already hard-boiled, so that cooking time has not been included" *Enjoy* !
