Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoon crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon freshly chopped parsley leaves
2 eggs, beaten
1 pound lump or backfin crabmeat
1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat
2 slices white bread, crusts removed and torn into small pieces
1/4 cup unsalted butter, as needed
Serving Suggestion: Tartar sauce

Steps:

  • Whisk together the first 7 ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
  • Spread the crabmeat on a cookie sheet and carefully remove any bits of shell. Transfer to a large bowl and toss gently with the bread. Spoon the wet mix over the crabmeat and gently fold until just combined. Allow the
  • mixture to rest in refrigerator for 10 minutes.
  • Shape the mixture into 12 even-sized cakes (approximately 4 ounces each). Chill the crab cakes for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight to firm up.
  • Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the crab cakes, turning once, until golden brown and heated through. (Alternatively, bake in a preheated 400 degree F. oven for 15 to 20 minutes.)
  • Serve immediately.
