A delightful and creamy crab slaw with fresh herbs and a tangy dressing, perfect for any occasion.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, mayonnaise, lemon zest, black pepper, and salt until smooth.
Ensure the dressing is well mixed to evenly coat the slaw.
Gently fold in half of the crab meat, the grape tomatoes, parsley, and chives into the dressing.
Be gentle to avoid breaking the crab meat too much.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the slaw for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling enhances the flavor and texture of the slaw.
Before serving, top the slaw with the remaining crab meat and sprinkle with crispy fried garlic.
Add the toppings just before serving to maintain their texture.
