Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 12 ounces surimi sticks
  • 1/4 cup Kewpie mayonnaise (see notes if using regular mayo)
  • 1-2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 1 English cucumber, sliced thin
  • Optional garnishes: diced chives, sesame seeds, fried shallots

Instructions

  1. Shred surimi into long pieces.
  2. Mix Kewpie mayo, sriracha and mirin until well combined. Drizzle over shredded surimi and toss to coat. Taste and adjust flavor with a pinch of salt, sugar or more sriracha to season to your liking. 

  3. Serve over thinly sliced cucumbers, garnished with diced chives and sesame seeds or crispy fried shallots.

Notes

  • Make a substitute for Kewpie mayo by combining 1 cup of regular mayonnaise with two tablespoons of rice vinegar and one tablespoon of sugar. Mix well and use for this recipe, or any other asking for Japanese mayo.
  • Substitute rice vinegar + 1/2 teaspoon of white sugar for mirin, if needed.
  • Keep leftover spicy crab salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
