Maryland Crab Cakes I image

Growing up near the Chesapeake Bay you learn that crabs are as valuable as gold. My mom made crab cakes every Friday in the summer months, but I like my recipe just a tad better. Don't tell mom.

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound crabmeat
2 slices white bread, crusts trimmed
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon-style prepared mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning TM
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Pick the crab meat to remove any remaining pieces of shell.
  • Pick bread into small pieces and place in medium-size bowl with crabmeat. Add egg, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and Old Bay seasoning ™. Mix ingredients by hand to avoid overworking the crabmeat, you want to keep the lumps of meat as much as possible. Form into patties; this should make 6 good-size cakes.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet, then fry cakes for about 4 minutes each side or until brown crust forms on both sides of the crab cake.

I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed these crab cakes. They were very flavorful and not fishy at all. I would definitely make them again.

I've been making crab cakes for years, and this recipe is by far the best. The key is to use fresh crab meat and not overcook the cakes. I also like to add a little bit of chopped onion and celery to the mixture. These crab cakes are always a hit wit

I had never made crab cakes before, but this recipe made it so easy. I was a little worried about the amount of Old Bay seasoning, but it was perfect. The crab cakes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

These crab cakes were absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. The crab meat was fresh and flavorful, and the bread crumbs and Old Bay seasoning added just the right amount of crunch and spice. I served them
