Ingredients:

1     pound         small red-skinned potatoes
1/4   teaspoon      salt
1     cup           snow crab meat
3                   scallions, white part only
2     tablespoons   finely-chopped Italian parsley
1/4   teaspoon      grated lemon zest
1     tablespoon    olive oil
2     teaspoons     fresh lemon juice
                    Freshly-ground black pepper
                    Shredded iceberg lettuce
                    Sliced seedless cucumber

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Cut the potatoes, with their skins, in half or quarter them, making roughly 1-inch pieces. Put the potatoes in a deep pot. Add cold water to a depth of 2 inches over the potatoes. Over high heat, bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-high, and cook until the potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the crabmeat, scallion, parsley and lemon zest to the potatoes. Toss with a fork to combine. Mix in the oil and lemon juice to coat the potatoes. Season the salad to taste with pepper. (Note: Snow crab can be salty. But if you wish, season the salad with additional salt to taste when adding the ground pepper.)
Serve, mounded on a bed of shredded lettuce, surrounded by sliced cucumbers.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
Comments: Everyone loves sweet snow crab and everyone likes potatoes. This salad pairs them in a fresh salad brightened with lemon zest. Serving it in crisp cups of iceberg lettuce to show off its appealing colors.
