Cucumber Prep: For less watery salad, you can lightly salt the cucumber slices and let them sit for 10 minutes before rinsing and drying them. This draws out some of the excess moisture.
Avocado: To prevent browning, toss the diced avocado with a little lemon or lime juice before adding it to the salad.
Kewpie Mayo Substitute: If you don’t have Kewpie mayo, you can use regular mayonnaise mixed with a tiny pinch of sugar and a drop of rice vinegar.
Vegetarian Option: Replace the imitation crab with marinated tofu or additional avocado for a vegetarian version.
Spice Level: Adjust the amount of Sriracha or chili garlic sauce to your preference.
Serving Suggestions: This salad is delicious on its own, but it also pairs well with rice crackers, wonton chips, or as a topping for grilled fish or chicken.
