West Indies Crab Salad Sea Stars Style



1 pound lump crabmeat
1 cup chopped vidalia onion
1/2 cup white vinigar
1/3 cup virgin olive oil
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 tsp lea & perrins
3 shakes tabasco sauce

First, check your crab & pick out any bits of shell that may have been missed.
Place crab in a glass loaf pan or other shallow dish.
Mix all other ingredients together to make a dressing.
Pour the dressing over the crab.
Cover then refridgerate & marinate for 1 to 4 hours.

This is a great little base salad by itself. You can also serve it on lettuce, on crackers, in hollowed out tomatoes, on avacado halves or asparagus.
You could also add celery, green pepper, scallions or fresh basil or even pimiento for color. You are limited only by your imagination.
