Crab sticks are made from surimi, a paste of white fish that is shaped, cooked and flavoured to taste like crab. They are fully cooked and ready to eat, which makes them one of the most practical ingredients for sushi, salads and sandwiches. The percentage on the pack (for example 55% surimi) shows how much fish the stick contains: the higher the number, the better the texture.

What does “55% surimi” mean?
It is the share of fish paste in the stick. Higher-percentage crab sticks are firmer, flakier and taste more of seafood, while lower percentages are softer and cheaper.
