Time 40m

Yield Makes 6 large crab cakes

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 large eggs
2½ tablespoons mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's or Duke's
1½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup finely diced celery, from one stalk
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 pound lump crab meat (see note below)
½ cup panko
Vegetable or canola oil, for cooking
1 cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's or Duke's
1½ tablespoons sweet pickle relish
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon minced red onion
1-2 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
  • Combine the eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, Old Bay, salt, celery, and parsley in a large bowl and mix well. Add the crab meat (be sure to check the meat for any hard and sharp cartilage) and panko; using a rubber spatula, gently fold the mixture together until just combined, being careful not to shred the crab meat. Shape into 6 cakes (each about ½ cup) and place on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This helps them set.
  • Preheat a large nonstick pan over medium heat and coat with oil. When the oil is hot, place the crab cakes in the pan and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Be careful as oil may splatter. Serve the crab cakes warm with the tartar sauce.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, relish, mustard, onion, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
  • Make-Ahead Instructions: The crab cakes can be formed, covered, and refrigerated a day ahead of time before cooking. The tartar sauce can be made and refrigerated up to 2 days in advance.
  • Note: If you can only find jumbo lump crab meat, you may need to break the pieces up a bit. If the clumps are too large, the crab cakes won't hold together well.
  • Note: The nutritional information does not include the tartar sauce.

ALL SAINTS SUMMER SUPPER MARYLAND CRAB CAKES



All Saints Summer Supper Maryland Crab Cakes image

I grew up in southern Maryland, and attended All Saints Episcopal Church, where my parents are still members. Every summer (1st weekend in August) the church hosts its Summer Supper fundraiser, which I consider a southern Maryland tradition, since folks come from all over to eat some great food (ham, fried chicken, green beans, fresh homemade bread, rolls, and desserts, and, oh yeah.. CRABCAKES! This is an adaptation of the recipe used at the supper, so that the yield is something reasonable for a family dinner (as opposed to the hundreds of crabcakes made by the fine folks at All Saints!). Of course, I have added my own touches over the years, but it's still pure "Maryland Crabcake".

Categories     Crab

Time 25m

Yield 9-12 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb crabmeat (claw or backfin)
1 egg
3 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce (or 2 t. powder)
2 1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
2 ounces breadcrumbs (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Pick through your crab; there are ALWAYS shells missed at the plant (they pick fast and furiously!).
  • Mix all ingredients EXCEPT the breadcrumbs. You can beat the egg before adding, but I scramble it a bit in the bowl then use my hands to get a consistent mix.
  • Add the breadcrumbs a bit at a time. The goal is to have just enough to bind the mix into patties, but not too much!
  • GENTLY form the mixture into patties, about 31/2 inches in diameter, and 3/4 inch thick. Note that you can make them smaller, if they are appetizers. At this stage, you can refrigerate them; doing so allows a little bit of flavor blending to occur (a good thing).
  • Get a cast iron skillet hot, and melt some olive oil, then butter in the pan.
  • Saute over medium heat, flipping once, so that both side are a golden brown.
  • OPTIONAL Step: after you flip once, add some red wine to the pan, it adds a light glaze to the cakes, and a nice flavor!
  • Serve with tartar sauce, as entree, appetizer, or sandwich.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality crab meat. This is the key to making delicious crab cakes. Look for crab meat that is firm and has a sweet, briny flavor.
  • Don't overmix the crab cakes. Overmixing will make the crab cakes tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use a light hand when forming the crab cakes. This will help to keep them delicate and prevent them from falling apart.
  • Pan-fry the crab cakes over medium heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the crab cakes with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, and remoulade.

Conclusion:

Maryland crab cakes are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make crab cakes that are sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a seafood dish to make, give Maryland crab cakes a try!
