How to Make Crab Cakes
Trivia Crabs were believed to be dangerous and troublesome to eat, making it impossible to be included in a dish as such. Nonetheless, anglers started to ace the craft of getting the meat inside the crab over time, and the shellfish gained popularity. In Maryland, the shellfish/crab used mostly is the blue crab. The dish "crab cake" was first authored by Crosby Gaige in the 1930s in his cookbook titled, New York World's Fair Cook Book. |
