Crabcakes With Zesty Herb Tartar Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Make the tartar sauce: Mix the mayonnaise, pickles, scallions, parsley, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce in a medium bowl until combined. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes to blend the flavors.
• Meanwhile, make the crab cakes: Mix the mayonnaise, parsley, mustard, lemon juice and Old Bay in a large bowl until combined. Add the panko and mix again. Add the crab and mix, taking care not to crush the meat. Shape the crab mixture into 8 patties, each about 3 inches in diameter. Cover and refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with a brown paper bag or a double layer of paper towels. Pour enough vegetable oil into a large skillet to come 1/2 inch up the side and heat over medium-high heat until the oil is hot but not smoking. Add the crab cakes in batches and cook until the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the cakes and continue cooking until golden, about 2 more minutes. Transfer the crab cakes to the lined baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven while cooking the remaining cakes. Serve hot with the tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, tarragon, and scallions. Gently stir in crabmeat, being careful not to break up meat. Gradually mix in cracker crumbs, adding until desired consistency is achieved.
• Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Form crab mixture into 4 patties. Place patties in skillet, and cook until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes on each side.

Steps:

• Mix crabmeat, eggs, mayonnaise, red and green bell peppers, parsley, baking powder, Worcestershire sauce, and seafood seasoning in a large bowl until blended.
• Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.
• Working in batches, use a tablespoon to carefully spoon poker chip-sized mini "cakes" into the skillet; batter will be loose. Cook on one side until firm, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until lightly browned and heated through, about 1 minute more.

Steps:

• Sassy Tartar Sauce: In small bowl combine all ingredients and mix well.
• Crab Cakes: In a medium bowl, add crabmeat, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, seafood seasoning, egg, and lemon juice. Stir to combine. Form 6 crab cakes approximately 2 1/2 inches diameter and place on baking sheet.
• In small plastic bag crush the saltine crackers and place into shallow dish. Lightly dredge the formed crab cakes into the crushed crackers and set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add enough oil to cover bottom of pan. When oil is hot, fry crab cakes in batches for about 3 minutes per side or until just golden brown. Transfer to a sheet pan or plate lined with a paper towel.
• Serve crab cakes with tartar sauce.

Steps:

• Thoroughly pick crabmeat. Make sure not to mash the crabmeat. Mix mayonnaise, eggs and mustard and bread crumbs together. Sprinkle lemon juice on top of the crabmeat and toss together. Mix crabmeat with mayonnaise mixture and fold gently. Sprinkle mixture with Old Bay seasoning and parsley.
• Form crab cake mixture into 3.5-ounce balls, and flatten slightly.
• Bake on lightly oiled baking pan at 375 degrees F for 12 minutes or to light brown in color.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine the mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, scallion, 1 teaspoon salt and egg. Add to crab and fold in enough breadcrumbs so crab cakes just hold together; season with Tabasco sauce. Refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes so that it is easier to handle. Shape mixture into 8 small cakes. Heat oil and butter in a nonstick skillet. Dip cakes in flour on both sides and shake off excess. Cook gently, on low heat for about 5 minutes a side or until cooked through. Drain and serve over cole slaw.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine 1-ounce bread crumbs, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire, mayonnaise, parsley, peppers, egg white, scallion, lemon juice, old bay, dry mustard, onion powder, and Dijon mustard. Once combined, gently fold in crabmeat. Once fully incorporated, form into 2 to 3 inch cakes. Dredge in remaining bread crumbs. Pan fry in hot oil until golden brown on both sides.

Steps:

• To make the sauce:
• In a medium bowl, toss the cucumber with the salt. Let stand about 1 hour. Transfer to a sieve and rinse well under cold running water. Pat the cucumber dry.
• In a small bowl, mix the drained cucumber, mayonnaise, scallion, capers, and anchovy paste. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (The tartar sauce can be prepared up to 3 days ahead.)
• To make the crab cakes:
• Mix the 1/2 cup bread crumbs, the mayonnaise, egg, mustard, scallion, Worcestershire sauce, and Delmarva or Old Bay seasoning. Mix in the crabmeat with wet hands, form into 6 cakes about 3 inches wide. Place the remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs in a deep plate. Coat the crab cakes in the crumbs and set aside.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Into a large deep skillet (preferably cast iron), pour vegetable oil to a depth of 1/2 inch, and heat over high heat until very hot but not smoking. Carefully add the crab cakes and cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to the paper towels to drain. Serve hot, with the tartar sauce on the side.
• To make Delmarva Seasoning: Mix 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon ground celery seed, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 1 teaspoon sweet paprika, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon ground bay leaf, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Will keep indefinitely in a tightly covered container in a cool, dark place. Makes about 3 tablespoons.
