For the best flavor, use high-quality jumbo lump crabmeat. Gently handle the crab mixture to avoid breaking up the lumps. If you don't have a broiler, you can pan-fry the crab cakes in a skillet with a little oil until golden brown and cooked through. For a richer flavor, try adding a tablespoon of melted butter to the crab mixture. Consider serving with a homemade tartar sauce or a spicy remoulade for an extra layer of flavor.
