Notes

Always use high-quality crab meat for the best results. Don't overcrowd the pan while cooking to ensure even browning. Experiment with spices like cayenne for a kick. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days; reheat gently in the oven. For longer storage, freeze uncooked patties individually on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag and use within two months.
