Crab Salad “Lobster” Roll

A scrumptious crab salad nested in a roll is deliciously reminiscent of a lobster roll. The combination of the flavorful crab meat, tangy dressing, and crunchy vegetables creates a delightful texture and taste.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. Supreme Catch Snow Crab
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce (adjust according to your spice preference)
• 1/3 cup inner celery stalks and leaves finely minced.
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced.
• ¼ cup chopped scallions
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Drain the crab meat: Start by draining the crab meat to remove any excess liquid. Gently shake or press the crab meat to remove any remaining liquid.

Prepare the dressing: In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, lime juice, Tabasco sauce, minced celery, minced parsley, chopped scallions, salt, and pepper. Stir the ingredients together until well combined.

Combine the crab meat and dressing: Add the drained crab meat to the dressing mixture. Gently fold the crab meat into the dressing using a spatula or spoon. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much, as you want to maintain its texture and chunkiness.

Adjust seasoning: Taste the crab salad and adjust the seasoning to your liking. Add pepper, or any other desired seasonings to enhance the flavor.

Serve on a buttered toasted roll: To assemble the crab salad roll, take a soft roll of your choice, butter the cut sides of the roll and lightly toast them in a pan or under a broiler until they become golden and slightly crispy.

Next, scoop a generous amount of the crab salad mixture onto the bottom half of the toasted roll. Spread it evenly or pile it up according to your preference. Top it with the other half of the roll.
