My grandaddy loved to cook and seafood was one of his favorites. This is his adaption from a Crab Cake recipe out of a 1956 North Carolina How to Cook Crabs Cookbook. I've made them his way and the cook book way, I like his best. This is the reason I won't even order crabcakes off of any menu - they just don't compare.

SERVES 4 -6 , 6 cakes (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 eggs
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon horseradish
1 teaspoon snipped parsley
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 1/4 cups fine breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
12 ounces crabmeat
3 tablespoons oil
salt
pepper

Directions

1
Combine all ingredients except 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, blend well.
2
Shape into 1/2 inch thick patties.
3
Coat with remaining crumbs.
4
Chill 30 minutes.
5
Heat oil in skillet.
6
Fry until brown.

NOTE: I have also cooked these in the oven for about 20 minutes on each side and they were just as good.
8
NOTE: I have frozen these before cooking and they are still great.
