Friday's Last Spoonful: Artificial Crab Salad

Versatile surimi offers options

Try adding chopped surimi in different veggie salads. We recommend using it with mayo-based or infused olive oil dressings. Cucumber and imitation crab sticks are a good combo because they have opposite textures while their flavors combine for a great overall taste. Broccoli works well too with the surimi. Add some pine nuts or sunflower seeds to make a heartier salad. Spice things up with your favorite seafood seasonings. We also suggest making crab salads the night before the party. Turn it into a great sandwich filling with a baguette

Helpful Hint: It’s easier to handle and slice surimi if it’s partially frozen (much like cookie dough).
