The current issue of Annapolis, Maryland's Bay Weekly newspaper
published the following crabcake recipe provided by the 65-year-old
Rod 'n' Reel Restaurant in Chesapeake Beach, Maryland:
Rod ‘n’ Reel Crabcakes 1 lb. colossal blue crab meat, all shell removed
3/4 cup Hellmans mayonnaise
1 tbs. Dijon mustard
1 tbs. Lemon juice
1 tbs. Old Bay seasoning
1 egg
3/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
Combine mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay and egg in mixing
bowl. Add bread crumbs and mix thoroughly. Fold in the crabmeat carefully
so as not to lose the large lumps. Make five cakes by hand. You may now, bake,
deep fry, sauté, or broil them until they reach 140 degrees internally.
I am most impressed with its utter simplicity. And while I know that
there are other recipes for crabcakes on this web site, I thought I
would hightlight this one which I aim to try myself soon.
