This recipe, while attractive and easy to make, was a little on the bland side. The crab filling was a little watery and didn't want to stay in the cucumber rounds very well. This recipe has potential though - add a little kick to the crab filling with seasonings. It could also use a little garnish - perhaps a sprig of watercress on top of each piece at serving time or adding some finely chopped red bell pepper to the crab filling for a little color. The one other complaint was that there was a high cucumber to crab ratio - so unless you're serving it to cucumber fanatics, you might want to try to hollow out as much of the cucumber flesh as you can to make a thinner shell. Overall, we think we'd like to experiment with this recipe again in the future.
