You can also make this crab cakes recipe into a casserole loaf by simply putting the mixture into a lightly greased cake or loaf pan and baking at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes for a cake pan or 45-60 minutes for a loaf pan.

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.
