Crab salad is one of the few dishes of this type, which was able to survive in a classic form until modern times. The fact is that in the Soviet Union there were many interesting salads. But for various reasons, many dishes could not find realization in the XXI century.
Crab salad was created in the 1990s
.
The fact is that crab sticks began to produce in our country only in the early 1980s.
People preferred to buy crab fillets instead of sticks

In the nineties, because of the shortage, people replaced crab meat
with sticks
and began to make a still relevant salad.
