Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/8 tsp pink pepercorn salt
  • 227 g (8 oz) jumbo lump crab meat
  • 1/4 small red onion
  • 1 loose handful of watercress
  • 178 ml (3/4 cup) cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Whisk sugar, vinegar, olive oil, and garlic together in a bowl.

  5. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Notes

  • For best flavor, use high-quality, fresh lump crab meat.
  • If you don’t have pink peppercorn salt, regular sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper are a good substitute.
  • Store leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The tomatoes may release some liquid.
