Diets 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.
5–6 pieces kani sticks
8 ounces (225 grams) frozen edamame (soybeans), defrosted and shelled
1 cup canned corn, such as Gefen
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)
1/2 cup Gefen Mayonnaise (or low fat)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice or Gefen Lemon Juice, or to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
Defrost kani slightly and slice into thin strips. Place on a platter.
Place each vegetable into its own section on the platter. Scatter fresh parsley over all, if desired.
Mix dressing ingredients together. Serve on the side.

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
