Marylanders love their blue crabs and so do many people visiting Maryland. This recipe book is full of a vast array of recipes using the infamous Maryland Blue Crab.

Note: The Chesapeake blue crab has two types of meat. Most Maryland recipes will specify "lump crab meat" or "backfin crab meat." This is the white sweet crab meat that comes from the body of the crab. The other meat is "claw meat" and comes from the claws or legs of the crab. You can use any meat from the crab that you want but true Marylanders will demand that you only use backfin crabmeat when making a Maryland Crab Cake. Claw meat is okay in certain dishes such as Maryland claw hors devours, but for a crab cake, it must be lump backfin crab meat.
