How to make classic crab and corn salad without rice? Prepare all the necessary products. Take chilled crab sticks; crab meat is also suitable. Mayonnaise can be replaced with sour cream or Greek yogurt. Take eggs from the CO category. But before boiling them, check the eggs for freshness. Place them in a container of water at room temperature: if the egg sinks, it is fresh. If the egg floats, it is better not to use it.
