    Blue Crab, 16 oz
    Progresso Bread Crumbs - Italian Style, .5 cup
    Scallions, raw, 2 tbsp chopped
    Lemon zest, 1 tbsp
    Kraft Real Mayo, 4 tbsp
    Lemon juice, 1 tbsp
    Lea & Perrins, Worcestershire Sauce, .5 tsp
    Chesapeake Bay Style Seasoning (Old Bay), 1.5 tsp

Directions

Combine crab meat, bread crumbs, scallions and lemon zest in bowl. Separately, stir together mayo, lemon juice, 1/2 tsp Old Bay style seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and cayenne pepper. Gently fold mayo mixture into crab mixture until the two are thoroughly combined. Try to avoid breaking up crab meat. Whisk together egg yolks (or liquid egg substitute), milk, beer, and 1 tsp Old Bay for the batter in a large bowl. Sift in flour & baking powder. Stir mixture with a fork until batter is just combined, some lumps are ok. Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a medium size pot to 360*F.
Form crab mixture into balls the size of large gum balls, about 1 rounded Tbsp each. Working in batches, coat crab balls with batter, then use a slotted spoon to lay them into hot oil. Turn frequently until they're evenly browned, about 2 minutes. Remove fluffs to paper-towel lined tray, serve immediately, or keep warm @ 200*F for up to 30 minutes.
