I always make sure I get more crab than I need so O can make crab cakes the next day. This recipe is made Louisiana style with creole seasoning and the &#8220;holy trinity&#8221;, which is onions, celery and bell peppers. So far it is the best tasting crab cakes I&#8217;ve ever had. It is better and much cheaper than you will get in even the finest restaurants. As a bonus, I show you a quick and easy caesar salad recipe. I&#8217;m getting hungry just writing this!<br \/>\nRecipe follows: <!--more--><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.epicurious.com\/images\/recipesmenus\/2001\/2001_april\/104883.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"266\" height=\"190\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Note: I had 2 lbs of crab so I quadrupled this recipe on the episode<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong> Ingredients<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul id=\"ingredientsList\">\n<li>1\/4 cup finely chopped onion<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper<\/li>\n<li>3 tablespoons finely chopped celery<\/li>\n<li>3 tablespoons unsalted butter<\/li>\n<li>1 large egg<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon sour cream<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon yellow mustard<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 teaspoon cayenne<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallion greens<\/li>\n<li>16 saltines, finely ground<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 lb jumbo lump crabmeat, picked over<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon vegetable oil<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul id=\"ingredientsList\">\n<li>Accompaniments: tartar sauce and lemon wedgesCook onion, bell pepper, and celery in 1 tablespoon butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 8 minutes.Whisk together egg, sour cream, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and salt in a large bowl, then stir in scallion, cooked vegetables, and 1\/4 cup saltine crumbs.
