Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the quartered lemon to extract its citrus flavor into the water.
Add the shrimp to the boiling pot and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are pink and opaque.
Transfer the cooked shrimp to a bowl of ice water to halt cooking and preserve their tender texture. Drain the shrimp and pat them dry.
In a bowl, combine the shrimp, celery, red onion, lemon juice, salt, pepper, mayonnaise, mustard, and dill. Mix well.
Garnish with additional fresh dill and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for later.
- For optimal flavor, prepare the salad a few hours in advance.
- Make sure to dry shrimp and vegetables to avoid a watery salad.
