For best results, use high-quality lump crabmeat for a superior flavor and texture. Be gentle when mixing the ingredients to avoid breaking up the crabmeat too much. Chilling the crab cakes for 30 minutes before cooking can help them hold their shape better. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your desired level of spiciness. Serve immediately for the best crispy texture.
