Eggs stuffed with crab sticks are an easy-to-cook appetizer that looks pretty nice and can be safely served even on a festive table.
For its preparation, it is worth using homemade chicken eggs. Crab sticks are better to buy natural, and not surimi imitation. It is the quality of this product that largely determines the taste of the finished snack, so it is better to buy good crab. In order to spend less time on the cooking process (although in general the appetizer is prepared quite quickly), it is worth boiling chicken eggs in advance.
Eggs stuffed with crab sticks should be served to the table after they have stood in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. You can safely decorate them with any greens on top or grease them with additional mayonnaise.
