AUTHENTIC EASTERN SHORE MARYLAND CRAB CAKES
Living in Talbot County, MD for 25 years, I have sampled many an Eastern Shore crab cake. I would say the defining qualities are lump crab meat, very little filling, and Old Bay. No veggies! I have tried many recipes, but I finally gave up and asked my friend, the owner of a relative's cookbook from the 1800s, for her recipe. I had to do a couple of favors to get it, so I am saving it here so I don't lose it. The recipe doubles just fine.

Steps:
- Mix together all ingredients BUT the crab.
- If the mixture seems a little dry, add more cream. You want cakes that are moist but firm enough to hold cakes together.
- Fold in crab meat, making sure mixture is well-combined, but being careful not to break up the lumps too much.
- Store in fridge for 1/2 hour or so.
- Broil until first side is brown, then flip and do the same. (Some people like to pan fry or even deep fry. Just cook until browned).

EASTERN SHORE CRAB CAKES
Steps:
- Place the crabmeat in a mixing bowl. Pick it with a fork and check to see that all the cartilage is removed. Add the egg, mayonnaise and mustard. Toss lightly together, using the fork so as not to shred the crabmeat too much.
- Add the seafood seasoning, parsley, minced onion, bread crumbs and grated lemon zest. Toss together lightly.
- Melt the butter over medium-high heat. Scoop up enough crab mixture to make a plump pattie about five inches in diameter. Place the crabcakes in the skillet and fry for three minutes or until a golden brown crust forms on the bottom. Flip the crabcakes over and continue to fry on the other side for another three or four minutes.
- Serve the crab cakes on soft hamburger buns or simply with a spoonful of tartar sauce.

Coastal Cooking with John Shields, 2004. This is a nice working recipe for crab cake not as fancy as the previous one but it has all the instructions and serves the same amount of people. If you wish the other feel free to google because others have placed it on the net.
