THE BEST CRAB CAKES
When we set out to make the "best" crab cakes, opinions in the test kitchen were strong and varied. But we could all agree on plenty of fresh, high-quality crabmeat with very little filler. After some tinkering, we created these decadent cakes-generously sized and highly seasoned-with plenty of lemon juice, fresh herbs and spices. The jumbo lump crabmeat is front and center, so splurge on the best and freshest you can find.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the crab cakes: Gently fold together the crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, chives, Dijon mustard, seafood seasoning, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper and the juice and zest of one lemon in a large bowl. Refrigerate the crab mixture for 15 minutes to firm up; this allows the breadcrumbs to absorb some of the liquid, helping the crab cakes bind together.
- Meanwhile, make the tartar sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, dill pickles, capers, chives, zest and juice of 1 lemon in a medium bowl and mix until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Scoop heaping half cups of the crab mixture and pat into 2 1/2-inch wide patties. Lightly press them together so they do not fall apart while cooking. You should have 8 patties.
- Heat 3 tablespoons unsalted butter and 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crab cakes to the pan and cook until golden, about 2 minutes, then flip using a flat metal spatula. Continue to cook until lightly golden, about 1 1/2 minutes then transfer the pan to the oven. Cook until the crab cakes are completely heated through, about 10 minutes.
- Serve the crab cakes with the tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

CRAB CAKES-CREOLE STYLE
In Louisiana, most dishes include plenty of fresh garlic, dry mustard, and cayenne pepper for Creole flavor. Heavy cream adds richness (because no Louisiana dish isn't rich). You need to start with a large dose of good quality lump crabmeat and keep the binder to a minimum. Saltines add more flavor than other binders and won't make the crab cakes pasty. This recipe was adapted from Cook's Country Magazine.

Steps:
- Heat 2 teaspoons oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer to plate and refrigerate 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add remaining ingredients except for the crabmeat, other portion of saltines, and oil. Add the cooled vegetables then gently fold in crabmeat, being careful not to break up large pieces of crab.
- Divide into 12 portions and shape each into 1¼-inch-thick cake and about the shape of your palms. Transfer to plate, cover, and refrigerate until well chilled, at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
- Heat remaining oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Dredge crab cakes in remaining cracker crumbs and press to adhere crumbs to cakes (coat with crumbs at a time, and cook about 3 per batch in the oil). Gently and carefully place the cakes into the hot oil. Cook until well browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side (turn cakes gently using two spatulas so as they won't break apart).
- Transfer to plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with remaining cakes, adding more oil to the pan as necessary. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
CREOLE CRAB CAKES
We've an abundance of crabs in coastal Louisiana. I know no one who has ever turned one of these down. Chill time not included. NOTE: For all the years that I've made these crab cakes, just recently I've used cracker crumbs in place of the breadcrumbs in the recipe and for the exterior coating and think that I might perfer that even more so.

LOUISIANA DEVILED CRAB CAKES
From a magazine that says this about the recipe: "These crab cakes are flavored with the "holy trinity" of Cajun cooking: onion, green bell pepper, and celery. Serve them with a hepling of coleslaw or a green salad." This makes a nice light main course, lunch or appetizer.

- Warm a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven or a cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes, then add the butter. When it has melted, add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 20 minutes.
- Add the celery, bell pepper, and bay leaf and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are very soft with no bite remaining, about 20 minutes. Taste a piece of bell pepper—if the vegetables are ready, there should be no more crunch to it.
- Add 1/2 cup (120 ml) of the cream, stir, and reduce the heat to low. Cook until most of the cream has reduced, about 8 minutes, then add the remaining1/2 cup (120 ml) cream and simmer until the liquid has completely reduced and thickened to the consistency of a paste, 20 to 30 minutes. (It’s important to reduce the liquid as much as possible, or the mix will be watery.) Turn off the heat, transfer the mixture to a large bowl, and let cool.
- While the mixture is cooling, put your crabmeat in a large bowl and use your fingers to carefully pick through it and remove any crab shells: Take a little crab at a time and lightly rub it between your fingers—you should be able to feel bits of shell. Go through the meat before using.
