JUMBO LUMP BLUE CRAB CAKES

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 pounds jumbo lump blue crabmeat
1/2 cup mayonnaise or homemade aioli
4 teaspoons seafood seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
6 scallions, finely chopped, about 3/4 of the green part
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
2 large eggs
Salt and pepper
3 to 6 tablespoons fine bread crumbs (use just enough to help the cakes start to bind)
Canola-olive oil blend
Cocktail Sauce, recipe follows, for serving
Flavored aioli, for serving, optional
1 quart ketchup
2 tablespoons horseradish
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
Pinch cayenne
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Pick over the crabmeat to remove any shells. Be gentle, as the lumps of crab are delicate and will fall apart. Set aside. Mix together the mayonnaise, seafood seasoning, scallions, basil, eggs, and salt and pepper. Pour mixture over the crabmeat and with your hands gently mix together. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the crab mixture and continue to mix. Divide the mixture into 4 parts and mold the cakes with your hands (do not rinse off you hands between mixing and forming the cakes, as it is mixture on your hands that help the cakes stay together).
  • Refrigerate the cakes for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Paint the crab cakes with a minuscule amount of oil and sear in a hot oven-safe skillet or on a griddle top until lightly golden brown on both sides. The cakes have such little binder that you need to be careful when flipping them over so that they don't fall apart. Place the pan in the oven for about 5 minutes, or to heat through.
  • Serve with a red Cocktail Sauce and/or a flavored aioli.
  • Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

BLUE CRABS WITH SPICY BUTTER

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 12-ounce bottle lager-style beer
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
12 live blue crabs, preferably large males
1/2 cup Old Bay Seasoning
Spicy Butter (see recipe below)
Lemon wedges, for serving
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1 small garlic clove, finely grated

Steps:

  • Combine the beer and vinegar with 1 cup of water in a very large pot. Add a steamer insert and bring the liquid to a boil over high heat. Add the crabs and 1/4 cup of the Old Bay and cook, covered, until the crabs are bright red, 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the size. Transfer the crabs to a large platter and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Old Bay.
  • Serve the hot crabs with the Spicy Butter and lemon wedges on the side.
  • Make the butter while the crabs cook: combine the butter, Old Bay, cayenne and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. Melt the butter, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Pour the melted butter into a small ramekin, leaving the milk solids in the saucepan.
