Method
Prepare the Crab Cake Mixture
- 1
Combine Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the fresh crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, green onion, celery, bread crumbs, beaten egg, salt, black pepper, and Old Bay seasoning. Mix until just combined, being careful not to break up the crab meat too much.
- 2
Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the crab cake mixture for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flavors meld and makes the mixture easier to form into cakes.
