Crab Meat Ingredients
Method
Crab Meat Preparation Directions
Prepare the Base Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly blended.
Add Vegetables
Fold in the finely chopped celery and green onions into the mayonnaise mixture. Ensure they are evenly distributed.
Incorporate Crab Meat
Gently add the fresh crab meat to the mixture, being careful not to break up the crab too much. Fold it in gently until just combined.
Taste and Adjust Seasoning
Taste the crab mixture and adjust the seasoning with more salt, black pepper, or Old Bay seasoning as desired.
Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve
Once chilled, scoop the crab meat onto a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
