16. Next year, Dungeness season.
You too can enjoy this pleasure. When the crabs are cheap, serve the family the leg meat and freeze the body meat. Then make crabcakes !

6. Discuss?
There's no discussing. Only eating.

Sounds really good. Wish that were on the menu for me.

Mostly crabmeat, everything else is just lily-gilding.
If you're ever in the area...

15. Anyone who puts mostly crabmeat in crabcakes
is aces with me.

I'm not much of a specialist, but I've visited my friend in Germantown enough times to know I love me some crabcakes.

13. And you have one VERY dead DUer.
I'm hideously allergic to shellfish. Mrs R can't even COOK crab or shrimp when I'm home.

25. Hey, they'll let me stay in New England if I don't eat lobster, but if they find out that I
don't eat ice cream, I'll get deported for sure. So let's keep that one quiet, OK?

24. Yeah, when I was moving from PA to Connecticut, everyone said "Hey, great, New England! You're
going to be able to get that wonderful fresh seafood!"

Not hardly.

18. That sounds good too!
I'm a Yankee, and we like seafood with minimal assistance. I use minimal mayo and crumbs to hold the cakes together, but a crab salad with Old Bay and dressing is sublime.

34. Bread crumbs si, mayo no
I classify mayo, along with mustard, as a weapon of mass destruction, which among other things, means that both Iraq and Iran actually do have WMD. :-)

35. I prefer a little mayo to an egg as a binder, but the beauty of crabcakes is
there are many, many ways to make good ones. The mayo helps cut down on the amount of crumbs in the filler -- pretty much all of the crumbs are on the outside. I don't use those fancy coarse cut panko crumbs either --old fashioned white bread fine crumbs.

32. 1. Mix Old Bay seasoning and cheap coffee. 2. Brew in office coffee pot.
3. Start small (2-3 tablespoons of Old Bay per pot of coffee).

4. Slowly, over the course of the summer, up the mixture until it is almost 50/50 Old Bay and coffee.

5. Wonder why no one in the office seems to have noticed, or asks why you bring your own coffee in every day.

The above is true, and was done about 20 years ago during a summer job.
