Ingredients

  • 1 as many (as needed) Imitation crab sticks
  • 1 Knife

Method

  • Take the crab sticks out of the plastic film.
  • Pressing down on the side of the knife blade, slide it over the crab stick in one direction.
  • If you do this on the top, side and bottom of the stick in the same way, it will shred apart easily.
  • After shredding, cut it in half or whatever length you prefer before using in your cooking so it mixes easily with the other ingredients.
  • An easier version: Even if you just press the side of your knife firmly on the crab stick, it will still separate pretty well.
  • Variation, using chicken tenders: Press down hard on the side of a cooked chicken tender so that it's flattened to half its original thickness.
  • Shred with your hands.
  • Variation using ham: To pull apart a stack of ham slices that you've julienned, hold the shreds with the cut sides facing up, and poke with your knife tip.
  • They'll separate easily.
