    Instructions

    Ingredients

    • 1 lb. can Super Lump crab meat or Jumbo Lump crab meat
    • 1 Egg, beaten
    • ½ cup Mayonnaise
    • 1 teaspoon Tabasco
    • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
    • ½ teaspoon Coleman's Dry Mustard
    • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
    • ½ teaspoon Sugar
    • ½ Lemon, zested
    • 1 tablespoon Wondra flour
    • Sprinkle of Paprika, for topping Imperial

    Instructions

    1. Mix all ingredients, except Crab Meat, and reserve chilled until ready to cook.
    2. Preheat oven to 400°F
    3. In a large bowl, gently fold crab meat into ½ of the imperial sauce base, being careful not to break up the crab meat.
    4. Add more sauce until you have a loose, but not soupy, consistency. *This may not require all the sauce*
    5. Allow to chill for 15 minutes. Then divide into small buttered casserole dishes.
    6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
    7. Remove and allow to cool slightly (so you are not serving Molten Crab Lava).
    8. SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Go old school and serve with warm toast points (crust removed of course). OR: Serve with an Italian Tricolore salad with shaved parmesan cheese.
