Welcome to All in the Detail... I am so glad you are here!

Maryland Crab Cakes

Oh, so, unbelievably yummy… People will start requesting them!

 

Ingredients

1lb crab meat – backfin

2 eggs, beaten

1/8 C finely chopped green onion

½ C cracker crumbs

3 T mayonnaise

1 tsp prepared yellow mustard

Dash Worcestershire sauce

Directions

Toss ingredients lightly in the order given

Compress lightly into 2” to 3’ patties (see photo for thickness)

Fry in butter until golden brown on both sides

For what it’s worth, I use cracker crumbs I’ve made by crushing saltine crackers in a zip lock bag with a rolling pin.

I also use Phillip’s Crab House canned crab. It’s available at Costco. It’s as close to fresh Maryland blue crab in taste and texture (and trust me, texture’s very important here). I’ve used the brands available at Kroger and other grocery chains, the crab cakes just DO NOT come out the same.

You can serve it with cocktail sauce or...

Homemade Bubba Sauce

8 to 12 oz chili sauce

1/3 C lemon juice

3 T horseradish

1 T Worcestershire sauce

Few dashes of Tabasco (to taste)
