CAJUN CRAB CAKES (NO BREADCRUMBS)
Two of the most crucial ingredients used in New Orleans cooking are Cajun spice and local seafood! Crab has always been my favorite type of shellfish, but I have never really cared much for crab cakes. The overpowering presence of seasoned breadcrumbs used in most recipes interferes with the sweet and delicate flavors of the fresh lump crabmeat. After years of experimenting with many of New Orleans' most famous crab cake recipes, I have created a flavorful, mouth-watering, delicious piece of work! The key is to use a small amount of crumbled crackers instead of breadcrumbs. I hope you enjoy!

SEAFOOD CAKES WITH HERB SAUCE
Living near the ocean, I have a wide variety of seafood available to experiment with in recipes. This one uses salmon and scallops, but shrimp, crab, lobster, or any firm white fish, such as halibut or even cod, would work equally as well. - Elizabeth Truesdell, Petaluma, California

CAJUN SEAFOOD CAKES
Any fish variety will work well in this recipe. The fish, shrimp, and scallops may be steamed, broiled, or placed in a saucepan with a bit of water and white wine, covered, and cooked slowly for about 10 minutes, until opaque and cooked through. You may substitute canned tuna or splurge with fresh crab in this recipe. If you prefer, make these cakes without shellfish. Try one on a bun with Creole Remoulade Sauce Recipe #373985 or resting against a bed of paste with marinara sauce. Found recipe in, "The Whole Foods Market Cookbook."
