2 tbsp (30 ml) lemon juice
5 stalks celery, trimmed

Make sure crabmeat is completely dry, then sprinkle with lemon juice and set aside.

Use a vegetable peeler to peel the celery, then cut it into 1/4-inch (6-mm) slices. Trim the radishes and cut them into 1/2-inch (1.2-cm) dice.

In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, celery, radishes, chives, chopped celery leaves, mayonnaise and salt and pepper to taste.

To serve, place 2 butter lettuce leaves on each of 4 salad plates. Spoon a quarter of the crab and celery salad atop each.

Garnish with a few whole celery leaves.
