CRAB SEAFOOD SALAD

Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gather all the ingredients – celery, imitation crab meat, dill, mayonnaise, paprika, kosher salt, black pepper, and minced shallot.

Mix Gently: With a gentle hand, mix the ingredients together until they are well combined. The goal is to incorporate the flavors while maintaining the delicate texture of the imitation crab meat.

Chill: Transfer the bowl to the refrigerator and let the crab salad chill for at least one hour. This chilling process allows the flavors to meld together beautifully, enhancing the overall taste of the salad.

Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, serve the Crab Seafood Salad as desired. It’s versatile enough to be enjoyed on its own, as a filling for a sandwich, or as a topping over a bed of lettuce and cherry tomatoes.

Lettuce Wraps: For a lighter option, serve the crab salad in lettuce cups, garnished with extra dill and a sprinkle of paprika.

Seafood Salad Platter: Arrange the crab salad on a platter with slices of cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and crackers for a delightful appetizer.
