My mother-in-law came to visit us not that long ago in Wisconsin. I had to make her my crab cakes, even though I was nervous she wouldn’t approve. She like the ones that I made…thank goodness! Of course they will never be as good as hers because, well she’s from Maryland, and she’s the mom, but I’m glad I didn’t disappoint her! Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at All Recipes:
“I was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, so if anyone knows a good crab cake, it’s me. And this recipe will make you one FINE crab cake!”
Other than taking a trip to the state yourself, this is the closest you’re going to get to Maryland crab cake!
Ingredients
1 pound crabmeat, shredded
1 1/2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste
1 egg
1 1/2 tablespoons Hellmann’s mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon ground dry mustard
1 dash Frank’s Red hot pepper sauce
Instructions
Preheat oven broiler.
Mix together crab meat, bread crumbs, parsley, salt and pepper.

Quick Tip: Add another egg to help everything stick together better.
Thanks again to All Recipes for this scrumptious recipe!
Why didn’t you just ask your husbands mother for her recipe?
I agree…That would have been a lot easier. I guess you didn’t want her to know that you didn’t have a good recipe like hers. I’m sure she was impressed when you asked her for the recipe. She would be pleased to have you prepare a meal for her son with one of your recipes. 🙂
No franks sauce, please!!
Add a frothed up egg white to the mix to keep it lighter.
And yes I am from Maryland, born and bred.
I am going to half to stop following your site, too difficult to get the recipe !!!!!
