    One thing there is plenty of in December in Northern California is crab! I made these for my Christmas dinner. The only change I made was I added 2 tsp of Old Bay Seasoning. Deeeelicious!! Added my picture, too. Ate 'em plain to get all the flavors.

    My wife and I shared a dozen steamed crads last night. We each only ate 4 so Debbie picked the meat from the remaining 4 crabs. I fully intended on having crab cakes for dinner tonight, now I have a traditional recipe to use. Perfect timing. Thanks.

    Anything with crab is great! This is very close to my favorite crabcake recipe and I will try it. I live very close to Virginia Beach and go crabbing every summer.

    If you can get crab meat at the local fish merchant that is the best.

    This looks really good Debbie. Thanks a lot. Can I get Crab meat at the local Fish Merchant, or do I use tinned Crab Meat?
