For enhanced flavor, consider adding a dash of sherry or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the crab mixture. Ensure the crabmeat is well-drained to prevent soggy crab cakes. When frying, maintain a consistent heat level to ensure even browning. For a crispier texture, consider using panko bread crumbs instead of regular dry bread crumbs. Crab cakes can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before frying.
