These were delicious! They were a little difficult to keep together, but I think I should have broken the lump crab up a bit more- if I had the cakes probably would have stuck together better. I divided the recipe by 5 and still had too many crabcakes for the two of us. We froze half of them and will eat later. Excellent recipe! -
they do take time to prepare but oh so worth it! They were perfect with your filet oscar recipe. I can hardly wait to try it again by itself or stuffed in mushrooms. Thank you.
