I have a confession to make: I’ve never used kani before as it wasn’t available in Israel until recently. Well, I’m hooked. Simple and so versatile to use in a salad. No cooking necessary. Here I used a variety of veggies to give texture and crunch, and added a simple mayo-lemon juice dressing. Feel free to vary quantities of kani and vegetables to your liking. Thanks to G.A. for the idea.

Ingredients

Kani Platter

  • 5–6 pieces kani sticks

  • 8 ounces (225 grams) frozen edamame (soybeans), defrosted and shelled

  • 1 cup canned corn

  • 2 scallions, chopped

  • avocado, sliced

  • toasted nori sheets, cut into pieces

  • crispy fried onions (I used French’s)

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • handful fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

  • Gefen Sesame Seeds, for garnish (optional)

Dressing

  • pepper, to taste

Directions

Prepare the Kani Platter

1.

Defrost kani slightly and slice into thin strips. Place on a platter.

2.

Place each vegetable into its own section on the platter. Scatter fresh parsley over all, if desired.

3.

Mix dressing ingredients together. Serve on the side.

Tips:

If you prefer a spicier dressing, add a bit of sriracha sauce to it.

Notes:

This can be served in a bowl as a tossed salad as well. If doing so, cut the kani into small chunks. Add the other vegetables and toss with dressing. Garnish with parsley.

I love this concept! So easy and it looks impressive. I like adding shredded carrots and cucumbers to sushi salads and it works here too
