Crab salad often includes fresh cucumber. This product has a lot of useful properties. Cucumber removes salts from the body, promotes normal kidney function, and also removes cholesterol plaques from blood vessels.
Chicken eggs are an essential source of protein. Protein is the building material for cells. Protein is essential for a person at any age; it also helps maintain muscle mass when playing sports. Chicken eggs help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
White boiled rice is one of the most popular side dishes. Rice helps improve the functioning of the digestive system, since when it enters the stomach, it reduces its acidity.

Harm and contraindications

Despite the fact that crab salad has many beneficial properties, for some people the use of this dish may be limited or completely contraindicated.

This dish should not be consumed:

children. In large quantities, lettuce can be harmful to the child. Some ingredients contain dyes and preservatives that are harmful to the child's body;
Diabetics. Chicken eggs, which are part of the ingredients of the dish, can cause the development of atherosclerosis due to diabetes;
Also, nursing and pregnant women should discuss nutrition with their doctor before introducing this dish into their diet. Preservatives and chemical additives can affect not only the mother’s body, but also the child.

Crab salad, the calorie content of which is quite acceptable for introducing it into the diet on an ongoing basis, is harmful precisely when consumed periodically. Constantly eating salad with crab sticks can cause gastrointestinal upset.

BJU of Crab salad without mayonnaise

If you want to make a lighter option and reduce nutritional value, you can season it with vegetable oil instead of mayonnaise. The fat and carbohydrate content will also decrease. In addition, store-bought sauce contains harmful preservatives and food additives. Therefore, by using a different dressing, you can not only make the dish dietary, but also increase its value from the point of view of dieting.

For crab salad, the calorie content per 100 g when seasoned with vegetable oil is significantly lower than when adding mayonnaise. In addition, you can use unrefined vegetable oils, which contain a rich biochemical composition that saturates the human body with a mass of useful substances. In this case, the salad with crab sticks has a reduced calorie content and BJU values:

Nutritional value – 95-110 calories.
Proteins – 7.3 g.
Fats – 7.6 g.
Carbohydrates – 8 g.

If olive oil seems too common for such a recipe, you can add a small amount of mustard, lemon juice, salt and pepper. How much to add these components depends on individual preferences. But it's worth starting with ½ tsp. mustard and 1 tbsp. lemon juice. In this case, the calorie content and nutritional value will remain the same, but the taste will become more pronounced.

Classic recipe

Crab salad according to the classic recipe, the calorie content of which is about 130 kcal per 100 g, is a dish of rice, crab sticks and cucumber.

Prepare the dish in 20-30 minutes.

Composition of ingredients

To prepare a delicious dish you will need:

1/3 tbsp rice;
4 large chicken eggs;
1 can of canned sweet corn;
250 g crab sticks;
60 ml mayonnaise;
1 large cucumber.

You can also add salt (optional), pepper and other spices to the finished dish.

Step-by-step cooking process

Preparing the dish is quite simple. Steps for preparing crab salad:

First you need to prepare all the products on the work surface.
Place chicken eggs in a small container and place them on the stove. The product must be hard-boiled to avoid salmonellosis.
You also need to put rice in a separate pan on the stove. To prepare 100 grams of rice, 250–300 ml of water is enough (depending on the type of rice).
While the chicken eggs are boiling, you need to prepare other products. You can choose a deep bowl in advance to make it convenient to mix all the ingredients.
Crab sticks, if frozen, must first be thawed at room temperature. The prepared product must be removed from the packaging and cut into medium-sized cubes. Place the chopped crab sticks in a common bowl.
The cucumber must be washed thoroughly. If it is bitter, then you need to remove the peel. You can also remove the peel if it is tough. You need to chop the cucumber very finely.
From canned corn you need to drain all the juice in which it was stored. Place all the corn in a common bowl and mix all the products thoroughly.
When the eggs are ready, they need to be slightly cooled and peeled. The finished eggs should be cut into large cubes and added to the bowl with the rest of the products.
When the rice is ready, you will need to drain it in a colander and rinse thoroughly under running water. The crumbly cereal should be added to a common bowl and all products should be thoroughly mixed.
First you need to add mayonnaise to the dish, then mix thoroughly. After mayonnaise, you need to add salt (optional) and spices.

It is important to season the salad with mayonnaise only before serving, since rice and crab sticks tend to absorb the fat content of mayonnaise, leaving it “dry”.

What can I add?

Crab salad, the calorie content of which depends on the products used, can be varied according to your taste and desire.

The following products are best suited to this dish:

Product	How will it affect the finished dish?	In what quantities should you add?
Cabbage	Cabbage is a low-fat vegetable that the body needs for the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. Cabbage adds a pleasant light flavor to the finished dish and also provides an appetizing crunch (if the cabbage is fresh). Also, white cabbage is an indispensable source of ascorbic acid during the diet. Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, protecting the body from diseases.	To prepare a delicious salad you will need about 100 grams of white cabbage.
Sour cream	Sour cream makes the dish healthier. When using homemade sour cream, the finished crab salad acquires a pleasant creamy taste.	When preparing a salad, you can replace store-bought mayonnaise with the same amount of homemade or store-bought sour cream.
Fresh herbs	Fresh herbs combined with homemade cucumbers and crisp cabbage give the finished dish a delicious, fresh taste. This option for preparing the dish will be the most “correct”, since fresh green vegetables contain a minimum of calories and a maximum of useful micro- and macroelements.	To prepare the dish you will need 1 bunch of any fresh herbs. You can make an assortment of the most popular types of leafy vegetables.
Garlic	Garlic gives the finished dish a pleasant spicy taste and aroma. It is best to add spice to a dish in the form of a gruel, mixed with mayonnaise or sour cream, or cut into small cubes.	To prepare the dish you will need about 2-3 cloves of garlic. You can also use granulated garlic - 4-6 tsp. product.
Squid	Squids have a pleasant neutral taste. When adding squid carcass to a salad, it is best to use garlic mayonnaise, as the meat absorbs a pleasant taste and saturates the dish. Squid also allows you to saturate the salad with healthy protein.	To prepare the dish you will need 1-2 medium-sized squid carcasses.

You can also add various spices to the lard. Ground black pepper and paprika are best.

How to serve a dish
