Crab Cakes
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons white pepper
4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons dry mustard
4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
4 teaspoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons seafood seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1 1/3 cups mayonnaise
2 cups soft, white bread crumbs
4 eggs
4 pounds jumbo lump crabmeat, picked clean of all shells, see *Cook's Note
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 lemon wedges, for serving
Tartar sauce, for serving, optional
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine cayenne, white pepper, salt, dry mustard, Worcestershire, lemon juice, seafood seasoning, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, and eggs in a large bowl and mix until thoroughly combined. Place crabmeat in another large bowl and gently fold egg mixture into crabmeat, being careful not to break up large crab pieces. Shape into 4 crab cakes.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crab cakes, in batches if necessary, and cook until lightly browned, approximately 1 minute on each side. Transfer crab cakes to a sheet pan (or place skillet in oven if oven-safe) and finish cooking the crab cakes in the oven until heated through. Serve with lemon wedges and tartar sauce, if desired.

CRAB CAKES
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
4 large eggs, beaten lightly
6 tablespoons sour cream
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves (preferably flat-leafed)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
2 pounds lump crab meat, picked over
2 cups fine fresh bread crumbs
1/3 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup vegetable oil
tarragon tartar sauce as an accompaniment
lemon wedges as an accompaniment
In a bowl whisk together the butter, the eggs, the sour cream, the parsley, the lemon juice, the Worcestershire sauce, the paprika, the salt, and the cayenne and stir in the crab meat and the bread crumbs gently. Form 1/2-cup measures of the mixture into twelve 3/4-inch-thick cakes and transfer the crab cakes as they are formed to a baking sheet sprinkled with half the cornmeal. Sprinkle the crab cakes with the remaining cornmeal and chill them, covered with plastic wrap, for at least 1 hour or overnight.
In a large heavy skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sauté the crab cakes in batches, turning them once, for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden, transferring them as they are cooked to paper towels to drain. Keep the crab cakes warm on another baking sheet in a 200°F. oven. Serve the crab cakes with the tarragon tartar sauce and the lemon wedges.
Makes about 12 crab cakes, serving 6.

1 lb lump crabmeat
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs
1/4 cup mayonnaise (do not use dressing)
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dry mustard
Mix together eggs, mayo, OLD BAY, pepper, worcestershire sauce, and mustard, until creamy.
Add bread crumbs, mixing evenly.
Add in the crab meat, being sure to mix evenly.
Shape into cakes.
Makes 6 large or 9 medium crabcakes.
Saute in pan with a little oil for about 5 minutes on each side.
You can also broil them until brown. This may require you to flip them, depending on your pan.
Serve with tartar sauce and lemon.
Tip: Try a crabcake sandwich. I use a Martin's Brand potato roll topped with tartar sauce and crisp lettuce.

Crab meat, a box of instant stuffing mix, some chopped red and green peppers, diced onion, a little extra sage, and a sprinkle or two of "old Bay', mix with a couple beaten eggs. Make into patties and pan fry on each side about 3-4 minutes. Quick, easy, and the flavor is great!
