We wanted to use corn & crab, and this was the only recipe we could find. We made a few changes and really enjoyed them! Be sure to read the "Preparation" section first, because it calls for 1-1/3 cup more bread crumbs than is listed in the "Ingredients" section. We added only 3/4 cup. We used a whole can of chipotles, only 4 scallions, 2t mustard, and 3 eggs. We got 13 cakes, 1/2" thick and about 3-1/2" in diameter.
