Wharf Rat Crab Cakes
1 pound jumbo lump crab meat
1 to 2 cups bread crumbs
2 cups mayonnaise
1 egg
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning
1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
1 tablespoon horseradish
1 lemon, juiced
Sort through crabmeat and remove any shells. Mix in bread crumbs
until there is an even distribution through out the crabmeat.
In a separate bowl combine all other ingredients and mix thoroughly.
Gradually add the mix to the crabmeat until the crabmeat is moist
but not too wet.
Divide crabmeat into cakes (1 ounce for appetizers, 4 to 6 ounces
for entrees). Thoroughly heat crab cakes for 10 to 15 minutes at 375
degrees F and finish under the broiler to brown the top. Crab cakes
can also be pan-fried. Source: Wharf Rat,
