The best pasta salad with surimi and hard-boiled eggs

Here are some tips for choosing the right one:

Read the labels: the higher the fish content, the better the quality.

Avoid overly sweet surimi: some contain added sugar, which can unbalance the flavor.

Choose brands known for their traceability and consistent quality.

And if you want to vary things a little, you can also use canned crab, cold shrimp, or even marinated tofu for a vegetarian version.
