3 medium-size English cucumbers
Kosher salt
One 8-ounce block cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup mayonnaise, at room temperature (no more than 2 hours)
1 stalk celery, finely diced (1/2 cup)
1/2 red bell pepper, finely diced (3/4 cup)
1/2 yellow bell pepper, finely diced (3/4 cup)
1/2 pound lump crabmeat, picked through to remove any shells
1 1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning (I like Old Bay)
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish

Steps:

Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds. Cut each cucumber half crosswise into 4 pieces and place on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt. Let stand while making the filling.
Beat the cream cheese and mayonnaise in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the celery, bell peppers, crabmeat, seafood seasoning, lemon zest, lemon juice and chopped dill.
Pat the cucumbers dry (to remove the liquid and salt). Spoon the crab salad into the hollowed cucumbers. Garnish with more dill. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
