For the best flavor, use high-quality, fresh ingredients. Avoid imitation crab meat. If you prefer a tangier salad, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a dash of hot sauce. To prevent the salad from becoming watery, make sure the crabmeat and shrimp are well-drained before mixing. This salad can be made a day in advance. However, it's best to add the mayonnaise just before serving to prevent it from becoming too soggy.
