First prepare
the dressing by dissolving the Equal in the vinegar. Then cut up and
marinate the vegetables in the dressing for approximately 30 minutes.
Toss the crabmeat lightly with your hands (freshly washed, of course).
Pour a small amount of dressing over the crabmeat and mix. Use only as
much dressing as needed. Add the marinated vegetables and refrigerate.
Before serving pour off any settled dressing.
