Ingredients
Old Bay Remoulade:
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons minced capers (nonpereil)
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
2 tablespoons pickle juice
1 tablespoon creole mustard
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Baked Crabcakes:
2 large eggs
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 to 4 dashes hot sauce
16 ounces backfin crabmeat
1 cup crushed butter crackers, such as Ritz Crackers
16 ounces jumbo lump crabmeat
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the remoulade: Combine the mayonnaise, capers, chives, pickle juice, creole mustard, Old Bay, lemon zest and juice, and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk until well combined and smooth, about 1 minute. Cover and refrigerate.
- For the crabcakes: Combine the eggs, lemon zest and juice, mayonnaise, Old Bay, salt and hot sauce in a bowl; whisk together until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the backfin crabmeat and the crushed crackers, and mix until well combined. Gently fold in the lump crabmeat. Divide the crabcake mixture into six equal portions; roll each into a loose ball and place in a large cast-iron pan.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the crabcakes are golden brown and cooked through, about 15 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Arrange the crabcakes on a large serving platter. Top each with a dollop of the remoulade. Serve immediately.
