Hey /ck/. I got some imitation crab meat and I have no idea what to make with it. I have never used it as an ingredient in my life. Any simple(ish) recipes you know involving imitation crab meat? I am kind of craving it for some reason, and I don't want it to go bad.

Do I need to cook the crab in any way?

I usually eat it straight as a "shit I've gotta be there in five minutes where are my car keys goddammit I'm hungry I hate this" snack, but when I've actually got a few minutes on my hands I use my go-to meal for helping get rid of the meat:

>Macaroni noodles.
>Alfredo white sauce.
>Peas and/or any other sweet-ish veggies I can quickly toss in.
>Feel free to use any good white cheese. I'm a poor bastard so I use parmesan.
>Fresh black pepper before you shovel that garbage into your sausage siphoner.

I've also been meaning to try it with some red pepper, but I'll get around to that later.

That actually sounds pretty good. I was just going to pan fry it with some butter and other random seasoning shit and put it on top some kind of pasta.

I'm not sure what you mean, like a side-dish?
Normally alone, if I wanted to eat more with it probably some cous cous or something.

Sometimes I filler it up with iceburg lettuce when I'm running low on Im. Crab.

My mom makes this weird vinegar salad that I've never seen anywhere else before. It's good with crackers?

>chopped up imitation crab
>vinegar, water, vegetable oil
>powdered soup stock (we use vegetable stock), salt and pepper

you just kinda combine it all until you get the taste you want and then let it sit for a while, scoop it up with regular crackers. It's weird and I can't really say it's anything amazing but I guess it's something to try if you don't have any other ideas.

Allow me to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as imitation crab meat, is in fact, processed white fish, or as I've recently taken to calling it, surimi.

My favorite thing to do with it is put it in fettuccine alfredo, sometimes alongside crumbled bacon.
