The Chesapeake Bay Tradition
Ingredients
1lb crab meat (lump crab if available)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
20 saltine crackers, finely crushed
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lemon
How It’s Made
In a large bowl, mix the crackers, egg, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Old Bay, and salt. Add the crab meat and mix to coat all the crab, making sure not to break up any lumps too much.
Form into small patties and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes. Saute in the butter and olive oil at Med-Low temperature for 5 minutes on each side, then move to a wire rack or paper towel and squeeze lemon over the patties.
