These crab cakes are handmade using a century-old Maryland recipe which calls for 65% sweet, meaty chunks - not shavings - of fresh, all-natural blue crab, plus a delicately flavored blend of bread crumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, and spices. They're irresistible baked, panfried, or deep-fried. Two to three cakes serve 1.
