I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my crab cakes didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked.

I had some trouble finding all of the ingredients, but it was worth it in the end.

I've made crab cakes many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The crab cakes were perfectly crispy on the outside and moist and flavorful on the inside. The Thai vinaigrette was also amazing. I will definitely be making this recipe agai
