I like these with the tarragon sauce. My wife, Glenda doesn't; she prefers hers plain. If you aren't a big tarragon lover, leave it out, and you have Crab Cakes with Tartar Sauce. Prep time includes setting time.

- Crab Cakes: Combine crab, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, green onion, mustard, egg white, Tabasco, salt, and black pepper.
