GCCC Style Crab Cake
- 1 3/4 cups mayonnaise
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons honey mustard
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- Juice from 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 ounce baking powder
- 1/2 ounce seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
- 1/2 ounce Worcestershire sauce
- 3/8 ounce hot sauce
- 3/8 ounce sriracha
- 1/8 ounce celery seed
- 2 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 2 pounds jumbo lump crabmeat
- Unsalted butter, for cooking
- Special equipment: a 4-ounce ice cream scoop
- Combine the mayonnaise, eggs, honey mustard, parsley, lemon juice, baking powder, seafood seasoning, Worcestershire, hot sauce, sriracha and celery seed in a large bowl.
- Whisk together, making sure to break up the eggs and combine all the ingredients thoroughly.
- Add the panko and incorporate it.
- Let the mixture set for 10 minutes so the panko absorbs as much moisture as possible.
- Add the jumbo lump crab meat (if desired, substitute with smaller lump crab meat to keep your cost down).
- Mix in the crab gently with your hands so that you don't break up the crab lumps.
- Refrigerate until the mix solidifies, about 20 minutes.
- Add some butter to a nonstick pan over medium-high heat.
- Use a 4-ounce ice cream scoop to scoop a level crab cake into the pan.
- Cook the crab cakes in batches until golden brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes, then flip with a spatula and cook until the other side is golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes more.
