About Crab cocktail

Crab Cocktail is a refreshing appetizer typically served chilled, featuring tender, succulent crab meat layered atop a zesty cocktail sauce. Originating in classic American and seafood cuisine, the dish often includes garnishes like lemon wedges, fresh herbs, or crisp lettuce for added texture and flavor. Packed with high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids, crab meat contributes to muscle health, brain function, and heart well-being. It is also low in fat and calories, making it a nutritious choice for those mindful of dietary balance. However, the cocktail sauce, which often contains added sugars and sodium, should be consumed in moderation. For an optimal health boost, pair Crab Cocktail with whole food accompaniments and limit overly processed condiments. Perfect as a light starter, this dish is a delicious way to enjoy the natural sweetness and health benefits of seafood.
