Directions
Faidley’s World Famous Crab Cakes, These take a while to make, but are worth it I got these from the newspaper years ago Faidley’s is in Lexington Market on Eutaw St in Baltimore, MD , Love these crab cakes I do add a little old bay to the top before cooking and I bake on parchment paper at 350 for 15-18 mins Found best way to reheat is on parchment with two small cups of water on the tray to keep them moist Reheat 12-15 mins on 350, I’ve lived in Baltimore most of my life and have become a true crab cake snob This recipe for Faidley’s crab cakes is always my go to However, it varies slightly from Faidley’s in Lexington Market — but always fantastic For best results, use either Maryland or North Carolina jumbo lump crab meat, best mayo, etc Quality ingredients are key You won’t be disappointed
