I got to know the wonderful taste of crab salad in less than 20 years. Now I don’t remember why, but our family didn’t cook it. I knew about the existence of this dish, but I could not imagine its taste. One evening I was pondering how to surprise my boyfriend, who was to visit me in a few hours. The decision was made at a time when a commercial for crab sticks was shown on TV. Since I did not have exact information about the rest of the ingredients of the salad, my imagination was used.

2 eggs;
