To make the Louie dressing, in a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, egg, black olives and sweet relish and stir until blended. Refrigerate until ready to use.
To make the salads, divide the lettuce among 6 chilled salad plates and top with equal amounts of the crabmeat. Drizzle the salads with the Louie dressing or serve it alongside. Serve immediately, accompanied by sourdough bread and butter.
This recipe yields 6 servings.
Comments: For decades, customers have sat at the counter at Swan Oyster Depot in San Francisco, where they've savored the restaurant's Crab Louie. Paired with crusty sourdough bread and an ice-cold beer, it makes a satisfying meal. The Louie dressing, which is simple to prepare, is the perfect accompaniment to fresh, sweet-tasting crabmeat.
