Notes

    • Flaked imitation crab works the best; however, you can cut the other varieties into small pieces.
    • Any type of mayo works, but I really like this version with olive oil mayo.
    • Fresh dill is the only way to go! You can use more or less, to your preference.
    • The flavors will continue to meld as it sits in the refrigerator.
