Step 1: Pick Through the Crab (If Needed)
Gently pick through the crab meat to remove any stray bits of shell or cartilage. Be careful not to break up the beautiful lumps—you want nice chunks.
Step 2: Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together:
-
Mayonnaise
-
Lemon juice
-
Dijon mustard
Condiments & Dressings -
Worcestershire sauce
-
Salt
-
Pepper
-
Cayenne (if using)
Step 3: Combine
n a medium bowl, gently combine:
-
Crab meat
-
Celery
-
Red onion
Fruits & Vegetables -
Fresh herbs
Add the dressing and fold gently until everything is just combined. Don't overmix—you want to keep those lovely crab lumps intact.
Step 4: Chill (Optional)
For best flavor, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.
Step 5: Serve
Serve chilled or at room temperature in your chosen vessels. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or paprika.
