This kani salad has crisp crunchy vegetables, luscious crab strings with a creamy “kewpie” mayo-based dressing! The ultimate comforting Japanese salad of my dreams. This recipe features ‘’Kani’’ crab but you can use regular imitation crab sticks. This salad can be made into several different dishes! You can make cucumber rolls with this mix, even wrap them up in rice paper or serve it on a bed of cold crisp lettuce.
