  • Make sure the mayonnaise is cold before mixing it with the crab salad. This will help to keep the salad from becoming too runny.
  • If you don't have any celery on hand, you can use chopped fennel or water chestnuts instead.
  • For a more flavorful crab salad, add a tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs, such as dill, chives, or parsley.
  • Serve the crab salad on croissants, bread, or crackers. You can also use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps.
