Carolina Crab Cakes

(Bellingham USA)

We tried these Carolina Crab Cakes with this mustard sauce the other night. We found the recipe in "Taste of Home" magazine we get every month.
These crab cakes were really good and the sauce paired perfectly with the crab cakes. This recipe could be good candidate for being in the "best crab cakes recipes" category!

  • 1 Tsp. Onion-grated

  • 1/2 Tsp. Worcestershire Sauce

  • 1/8 Tsp. Seafood Seasoning (we used Old Bay Seasoning)

  • Dash Pepper

  • Dash Hot Pepper Sauce (Tabasco)

  • 1 Can-Crab Meat (6 oz.)-drained

There's a special way to tell when crabs are done cooking. Their shells will turn bright red when properly cooked.
Already cooked crab meat is widely available. Although it's often sold frozen, seek out fresh cooked crab meat for the best flavor and texture. In the months of September through April, during most crab fishing seasons is when the local fish markets often sell cooked whole crabs. Ask for them to be cleaned and cracked, or take them home crack them yourself and then remove the meat.
