- 1 egg

- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- ¼ cup mayonnaise

Lightly pick through crab meat for shells.
Whisk egg in a medium bowl.
Add Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay, mustard, and mayonnaise to the egg. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, add crab meat. Fold the egg mixture into crab meat.
Add panko bread crumbs. Gently mix with hands being careful not to break up lump crab pieces.
Place the crab mixture in the fridge for 30-60 minutes. This really does help hold the crab cakes together.
Preheat oven to 425º.
