- Prepare the Crab Cakes: Process saltines in a food processor until consistency of fine crumbs, about 1 minute.

(Reserve remaining crumbs for another use.) Let stand 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Make chipotle mayo crab cakes sauce by combining the ingredients until smooth. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve. (This can be made several days in advance).
- In a mixing bowl add the crab meat, bell peppers, one beaten egg, Old Bay seasoning, mayo, garlic, cilantro and salt and pepper. Gently stir just until blended.
- Refrigerate for at least one hour, or up to 5 hours.
- Beat the remaining egg and add to a shallow dish. Add the panko bread crumbs to another dish.
- Spoon about 1/3 cup of the mixture into your palm and flatten into a small disc, about 3 inches in diameter.
- Sprinkle the outsides of the crab cake patties with a tiny bit of cornstarch.
- Dip each patty lightly in the beaten egg, and then coat them lightly with panko bread crumbs. I try to avoid doing a thick coating of crumbs because I like the crab flavor to shine through as much as possible.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, until golden brown on bottom.
- Gently flip to the other side and cook for another 3 minutes, or until golden. Remove to a plate. Serve warm with chipotle mayo sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- Make the crab cakes first so they have time to firm up in the refrigerator before you cook them.
- Heat a 2-count of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until the onion gets kind of caramelized. Dump that into a bowl and fold in the crabmeat, bread crumbs, mayonnaise, egg white, lime juice, and cilantro, mixing just until well blended. Season with salt and pepper. Shape the mixture into 6 fat crab cakes. Put them on a plate, cover, and stick them in the refrigerator to chill.
- To serve, heat a 3-count of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the crab cakes and cook for about 4 minutes each side until nice and crisp. Serve on torn butcher paper with fresh lemon wedges and Garlic Aioli with Celery Root.
- Mince garlic and make into paste using the side of your knife. Hint: to make this go faster add a bit of salt to the garlic and continue mashing with the side of your knife.
- Place the paste in a large bowl and add: the sour cream, mayonnaise, celery seed, lemon juice, and oil. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Fold in the shredded celery root and chives. Give it a final taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
