    Excellent tasting crab cakes you have here! I followed your recipe right on down to & including the pickle juice (something I'll have to save from now on, apparently!) & these were wonderful! & other half even took a couple to work, though NOT to share! Many thanks for posting the recipe! {Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's Pick A Chef event]

    Caribbean Crab Cakes, This is my take on Maryland style crab cakes, with a light (not heavy) breading and a flavor you will love Despite the name, these are NOT spicy or jerk, but rather full of flavor with a crispy outside and delicate inside Feeling crabby? :-), Excellent tasting crab cakes you have here!
