How to make it

  • Pick the crab meat over to remove excess shells and cartilage.
  • Combine the mayo, Old Bay, parsley, mustard and water until smooth.
  • Add the mayo mixture to the crab meat and mix, being careful not to break up the lumps of crab meat.
  • With your hands, break up the saltines into crumbs and mix into the crab mixture.
  • Form into four patties and pan-fry, or broil the cakes until golden brown.

    Perfect timing - we're picking up some crab legs tomorrow, and I love crab cakes. Thanks for the post! Only been to Georgetown once...missed The Tombs...but I'll remember it next time.
