Steps:

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to dice the celery and onion as small as possible. This will help the salad to have a smooth and creamy texture.
- If you're using canned crab meat, be sure to drain it well and flake it with a fork before adding it to the salad.
- For a richer flavor, use half mayonnaise and half sour cream in the dressing.
- If you're watching your calories, you can use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise in the dressing.
- Seafoam salad is best served chilled, so be sure to refrigerate it for at least an hour before serving.

Seafoam salad is a classic side dish that is perfect for any potluck or party. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a simple and refreshing dish to serve, give seafoam salad a try.
