This is a copy cat recipe submitted to CDKitchen by a third-party. This recipe is not an original recipe unless specifically stated and is considered only to be an acceptable "clone" to the original for the home cook to attempt to duplicate.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

This leaves much to be desired, beginning with the use of "imitation" crab. Anything which is imitation (in this case Pollak) has an 'off' flavor & texture, and is usually heavily processed. Also, a good Crab Salad contains diced celery, diced or grated onion OR shallot, salt & pepper, Old Bay Seasoning (optional), and a good quality mayonaise, such as "Duke's". BTW, use only enough mayo to hold everything together. Don't drown it in mayo, let the crab & the ingredients shine.
This is a copycat recipe from Albertson's. Their crab salad has almost a cult following as it's a very popular item there. Their salad uses imitation crab. We have many other crab salad recipes (using real crab) on the site so I'm sure you can find one that fits your requirements. No need to stick to this one.

It's a great recipe but it's even better when you add diced red onion along with the green onions, dill pickles chopped up fine, celery and old bay seasoning to taste!

Some crab salads can be a little bland, but the spring onions add some zip to the taste. I added a little lettuce and celery and made wraps with it. Great!

I thought this was pretty close to the crab salad I've tried from Albertson's in the past. It's been several years since I had it (all their locations closed here), but I remember it being a simple salad, yet quite tasty.
The albertson's crab salad here in CA has celery, yellow or white onion, sometimes* cheese, and black olives.
The Albertsons' crab salad I've bought contained imitation crab, shredded american cheese, chopped black olives, diced celery, onion and red peppers. Of course this could be regional, but I don't believe Albetsons would do that.

SandyU who posted the Krab salad for Albertsons...you're the best. I searched all the major mayo brand sites and none had a simple recipe for Krab salad. You saved the day! -Bizzy mama of two
