Asian Californian Mexican Faux Crab Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Shred each crab stick by placing on a work surface and raking a fork along the length of the stick to create long strands. Turn the stick a quarter turn and rake again; repeat on each remaining side. Use your fingers to pull apart any remaining strands. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the carrots, cucumbers, mango and 1 teaspoon salt to the large bowl; toss well.
• Stir together the mayonnaise, rice vinegar and sriracha in a small bowl. Add to the large bowl and toss well to coat. Taste and add more salt, if needed. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To serve, mound the kani salad onto a serving platter or in a bowl and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.

Steps:

• In a glass bowl, toss together the ingredients for the salsa. Season with salt and pepper and set aside to let the flavors build. SingleGuyChef says to let it sit for an hour but 30 minutes is also okay.
• Combine the chopped avocado and lime juice, season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
• In another glass bowl, add all of the ingredients for the faux crab.
• Toss, season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
• Okay, now for the combining the three bits:.
• You could make the crab the base, then the avocado, then the salsa, topped with sour cream.
• Or -- you could make the avocado the base, topped with crab, then with salsa, then with sour cream.
• Or -- you could spread a nice base of salsa, top with the crap and then add the avocado, sour cream on top or to the side.
• Or -- well, start using your imagination, you don't need me to tell you how to do everything, do you?.
• I've served these in our house as an appetizer in oversized martini glasses. I'll let you guess the order I layered the bits -- ;-).
