  • I first came across this green napa cabbage salad with crab sticks in a collection of Chinese recipes I bought in a subway underpass. As it happened, the store was out of regular cabbage and only had napa, so I bought a head, and the salad came in just right. It's been one of my favorites ever since I first made it. I shredded the washed cabbage and cut the crab sticks into neat rounds. I washed the green onions and chopped them fairly fine. Choose onions with thicker stalks so you get little ring shapes. I cut the washed tomatoes into rounds. For this salad, the tomatoes should be neither too big nor too small. After mixing it all together, I added mayonnaise and freshly squeezed lemon juice and put the salad in the fridge for an hour. I usually serve this crab-and-napa-cabbage salad on a platter lined with lettuce leaves, garnished with parsley on top. But everyone can have their own decorating ideas. The main thing is that it's phenomenally tasty, even though combining cabbage with crab sticks seems a little unexpected at first.
