LOWCOUNTRY CRAB CAKES

Blue crabs are abundant among the Lowcountry's saltwater rivers and marshes. If you can, use fresh sweet crab sold in plastic containers (not canned) for the best flavor. The best crab cakes are made with lots of crab and just enough egg and breadcrumbs to hold it together. These will not disappoint! Serve as an appetizer with a dollop of Yogurt Rémoulade (search for the recipe in the WW app).
