Every time I make this dish, everyone goes crazy and wants the recipe. I hardly ever give it out because it is one of "my" specialties. If everyone starts making it, it won't be so special. However, since I cannot have you all over for dinner, I will share it with my blog buds.

2 cups crab meat (about 3/4 lb. - NOT IMITATION!)

1 cup fresh bread crumbs (just tear up a few slices of bread)

2 large eggs, slightly beaten

1/2 cup heavy cream

a few dashes of hot sauce

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons sweet onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons red pepper, finely chopped

2 tablespoons green pepper finely chopped

2 tablespoons celery, minced

Several shakes Old Bay seasoning (this is not optional!)

6 tablespoons butter, separated

Whisk together the eggs, cream. Add hot sauce, Worcestershire, veggies, and seasoning. In a separate bowl, blend crab and bread crumbs. Pour the cream mixture into the crab mixture. Blend well.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large heavy skillet. Shape a tablespoon of the crab mixture into a little patty. Cook crab cakes in the butter until golden brown (about 2 minutes on each side). Serve warm with wedges of lemon. Makes at least 30 mini crab cake appetizers.

I have also made these larger and served them as an entree.

I get my crab in a plastic container at Sam's Club next to where they have the salmon and the (yuck) imitation crab meat. It is pasteurized so it stays fresh a long time. I try to always have one on hand to whip these up for guests.

Enjoy!

	Proto님이 남긴 글: What is Old Bay Seasoning, and where do I find it? I'm such a non-cook. 7월 3일
	Divide님이 남긴 글: Haha, gak so describes me. That sounds good. I went with a similar organization called EF America when I went to New York. I would love love love to do that, and I am sure I could raise the money by my senior year. Thanks for the tip! 6월 25일
	Divide님이 남긴 글: I am into cooking, but only when my grandmother is hovering safely within distance in case anything goes awry. But, what the heck! I haven't been to Chicago, but I would love to go. I want to see all the big cities of course, like San Fransico and Seattle. However, my sights are truely set on my (hopefully) senior trip; Spain, London, New Zealand, and Italy (most likely not going to happen, but I can dream). My dad can't afford my college either. So I have to get a scholarship and loads of finacial aid or nada. Our family is a pack, like a wolf pack. Noisy but fun, I couldn't imagine living without them. Disney World, ack! My younger sister is fixing to explode from excitement. I hate getting lost. I could only imagine how terrible it would be to be lost in another country or a large city! It gives me the heebie geebies. Aww, you haven't seen any of those movies? My dear Deb, run not walk to your local video rental place (unless you do not have the time, which is comepletely understandable) and at least watch My Dog Skip or Where the Heart Is. I will attempt the French Toast Souffle (and then possible write about my success)! H 6월 24일
	Jana님이 남긴 글: Deb you should keep all the recepies like somebody has a guest book you can have seperate window for recepies so we can find them easily. thank you for your comment about my trip! haha cowgirl :) I felt like that. ANd my another summer trip? It is Italy with my mom. I wish I could go somewhere in USA as well but I don't know if I will have time to do it with all my changings in my life. jana 6월 24일
	Shannon님이 남긴 글: Deb, This sounds fabulous- I will have to try it soon! :) I thought of you as I drove by Goodwill yesterday afternoon after running a few errands. I thought "Deb would NOT drive by- she would stop to see what she could find!" . So we stopped and found some great bargins. M found two shirts and a cute little denim skirt. We bought a brand new shirt for my oldest step daughter (M said not to tell her where it came from and she would love it- M is one smart little girl! :) and I got a adorable black Calvin Klein dress- all for a total of $17.70. What a deal! Thanks Deb- it is because of you that we got these fabulous deals! :) 6월 24일
	Divide님이 남긴 글: Oh crab! One good thing about being on the coast is fresh sea food. I'll have to slip this recipe to my grandma. :) My two sisters are 14 and 8, then my brother is 11. My father likes to research things also (in the end we all just run wild and have fun in the madness) haha. I just took the ACT for the first time. Gak. I did okay, 24, but I wanted to do better. I am a competitive student (to the point where my friends tell me to go easy). I think it's mainly fueled by my desire to go to a private college in New England, so a 4.0 is a required, as well as all those honors classes. I am not that great at science, which is odd because math and science go hand in hand. I made mediocre 90's in CP Biology and Marine Science. I enjoy your rambling! H 6월 23일
	Cecelia님이 남긴 글: I can't wait to make these. They sound really good and it's been so long since I've had crab cakes. I've never bought crab at Sam's club (Coscto in my case). Would the can crab work? Thanks and keep the receipes coming! Cecelia 6월 23일
	Mandy님이 남긴 글: How cute are you! I am sooo not the type of person to have crab meat on hand to be able to whip up a special treat for guests! I think I need to spend some time at your place! 6월 23일
	KBecca님이 남긴 글: I am looking forward to having my husband try this recipe. I love crab cakes for dinner with a salad! It sounds really good! Thank you for sharing! Rebecca 6월 23일
	Kat님이 남긴 글: Cool, a new receipe! I hate cooking from a cookbook; at least when my friends share a dish I KNOW it's good! Lottiemae commented once (and its so true) the best recipes are in church cookbooks; nobody is going to share a bad recipe there LOLOL You bet you can add me. I'm glad you enjoy stopping in. Take Care~Kat 6월 22일
