4. When ready to serve, fold the mayonnaise into the crab mixture and season with salt and pepper. If you want it a bit creamier, plop in another tablespoon or so of the mayonnaise. Whir the gazpacho in the blender for a few seconds to froth it again. Season with salt and pepper, if needed, and pour it into a pitcher. Make a small bed of greens in the center of chilled bowls, top with the crab, and poke a bit of fennel frond. Place the bowls in front of your guests and pour the gazpacho around the crab.
