My mother-in-law gave me this fantastic recipe to use with imitation crab meat! Here goes: 1 1/2 lbs imitation crab, 1- 8oz cream cheese, 1/2 c. sour cream, 2T. Mayonnaise, 1T. lemon juice, 1-1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tsp. dry mustard, pinch of garlic salt, 1/4 c. grated cheddar cheese, 1 T. milk (optional) Mix all ingredients and just 2 T of cheddar cheese together. (if too thick add milk) Put in a casserole dish and top with remaining cheese. Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes. This is very good served on water crackers, Ritz, or just about any kind of cracker.....good! Enjoy!Besides salad what are some other good recipes for imitation crab meat?
Crab dip....kinda like an artichoke dip with baguette bread!Besides salad what are some other good recipes for imitation crab meat?
Crab cakes and quiche.
I make seafood pizza - instead of tomato sauce, use cocktail/shrimp sauce.
California Rolls!
Spread cooled prepared sushi rice on a sheet of seaweed on a sushi roller, spread a thin line of mayo and then wasabi paste about 1'; from the edge closest to you. Lay down strips of the imitation crab (may need to shred to get it the right size), cucumber (seeded), carrot, and ripe avocado. Roll tightly away from you and press the edge of the seaweed to seal. Cut off the ragged edges. Cut into 6-8 rolls. Serve with soy sauce and wasabi paste. Voila!
Crab rangoon's like at the Chinese restaurant...yum,yum
CRAB RANGOON
1 lb. sea legs or any chunk artificial crab meat
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 bunch scallions, chopped (green part too)
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. sugar
1 pkg. won-ton skins
Oil for deep frying
Place crab meat, cream cheese, scallions, salt, and sugar into food processor and mix into a lumpy paste. If food processor is not available, chop crab and onions very fine and mix with softened cream cheese, salt, and sugar. Place teaspoonful of mixture in middle of a won ton skin. Moisten edges and draw up opposite corners to meet and form a package. Make sure all edges are sealed. Deep fry until golden brown.
i like to use the Tuna Helper ';Tuna Alfredo'; and substitute the tuna with the crab.
As a native Marylander, I could be shunned and exiled just for suggesting it, but I think the stuff has it's place if it's not compared to the real thing. It works in salads of all kinds well, but the thing I like to do with it is the thing I first saw it used for when it first came out in the early 80's. I was working in a restaurant at the beach when my boss bought a case of them. They came in the long stick form. He told everybody to grab a hotdog roll, heat up a crab stick and put it on the roll with melted cheese over it. Let me tell you-- that case was gone in a day!
