Crab Sticks in Batter
Description
Crab sticks in batter are one of those lifesaver appetizers that come together in no time, yet they look convincing enough on the table and fulfill their appetizer role excellently. Crab sticks in batter are both simple and convenient to prepare and to eat — because, you know, sometimes an appetizer gets set out on the table and it looks appetizing, but how to actually get some onto your plate is unclear... In short, if you have a festive feast coming up (New Year's, for example), go ahead and make this appetizer and put it on the table. Everyone will love it — you'll see :) Good luck Serve with herbs and sauce.
