Baltimore Crab Cakes image

This is my late mother's recipe. Do not use imitation or claw meat, backfin only; do not skip the seafood seasoning. My mother used prepared mustard in her recipe; I prefer ground mustard as it gives it more zing. Experiment with different mustards (Dijon, Spicy Brown, etc.) until you find the exact flavor YOU like. :-)

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tsp old bay or other seafood seasoning
1 large egg
2 Tbsp mayonnaise
1 Tbsp pimientos, chopped
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp ground mustard
1 tsp lemon juice
4 ritz crackers, crushed
1 tsp parsley flakes
1 lb backfin crabmeat

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven on broiler setting. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • 2. Place all ingredients, except crab meat in medium-sized bowl; mix.
  • 3. Fold in backfin, taking care not to break up lumps.
  • 4. Form into 4 patties.
  • 5. Traditional Baltimore crab cakes are preferred broiled. Broil 8-10 minutes on each side until browned.
  • 6. You may also pan fry. In a large saute pan, pour 2 tablespoons oil (my mom used peanut oil). Gently lay the cakes and pan fry until browned, about 5 minutes on each side. Drain cakes on paper towels.

I followed the recipe exactly and the crab cakes turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.
