Ingredients:
2 lbs backfin crab meat ( or artificial crabmeat)
2 cups celery, diced
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
2 dashes white pepper
6 drops Tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
4 tablespoons Italian dressing
lettuce ( for garnish)
Directions:
Pick over the crabmeat and discard any bits of shell or cartilage if using real crabmeat.
Alternately, if using artificial crabmeat, break into smaller pieces to resemble real crabmeat.
Combine the crabmeat and celery.
Mix remaining ingredients together (except lettuce) and pour over the crabmeat.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the lumps of crabmeat.
Refrigerate until ready to serve on lettuce.
