Crabtown Crab Cakes
  • 1 pound backfin crab meat
  • salt and pepper
  • 3 heaping tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg (well beaten)
  • 12 saltine crackers
Mix the above ingredients well. Drop by tablespoonful onto well-greased cookie sheet. Put slivers of butter on top of each cake. Place under broiler for 3 minutes, then slide in bottom of oven for 15 minutes to brown well. (The cakes, when cooked, will look like macaroons and are deliciously moist inside.)
