Ingredients

24 small round rice crackers
24 slices pickled ginger
4 ounces cooked jumbo crabmeat (about 1 cup; see Tip), drained if necessary, any shells or cartilage removed
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
2 teaspoons hot sesame oil

Preparation

Place a slice of pickled ginger on each cracker. Divide crab evenly among the crackers. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and drizzle with oil.

Tips & Notes

Tip: Crab from the U.S. and Canada are both considered good choices for the environment. If you live in an area known for crab, you may be able to get freshly cooked crabs at the seafood counter of your local market.
