Add the green onion and garlic; cook another minute. Stir in the salt, pepper, Cajun seasoning, Old Bay, parsley, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.Toast the bread slices, remove crust and reserve for another use. Sprinkle each piece of toast with water to dampen and set aside in a bowl. Let rest for 2 minutes. Pick through the crabmeat to check for any stray shell; set aside. Squeeze all of the water out of the bread and add the bread, crab and lemon juice to the vegetable mixture; gently mix, taste and adjust seasonings. Add the beaten egg.Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper and set aside. Place flour in a pie plate. Use an ice cream scoop to measure out the crab mixture, then shape into thin, oval patties. Dredge patties in flour, lightly coating on both sides. Set tray in refrigerator for 30 minutes or longer, until needed. Can also freeze at this point.Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet and cook crabmeat patties until browned and crisped on both sides, adding additional oil as needed. Split French bread lengthwise and cut to desired size. Butter cut sides and place into a separate griddle pan or large skillet over medium high heat until cut sides are toasted. Add mayonnaise to the bottom half of the bread. Top with cheese, crabmeat patties, and top half of the bread; place back into the skillet, using a spatula to press down on the po'boy as it toasts. Flip and turn, pressing, until outsides are nicely toasted and cheese is melted. Remove, open and dress with sliced tomato, shredded lettuce and sliced pickles, or with a pickle spear on the side. Serve immediately.Cook's Notes: Great when served with a cup of seafood gumbo and fresh, hot french fries. You can use any good French bread, though I prefer Leidenheimer brand poboy bread for these, which is a thinner and longer Louisiana-made French bread, intended especially for po'boys. It is packaged with two thin loaves per bag; each loaf can serve up to 4, depending on the size poboy you prefer. Reisings is also a good brand.Minis: These make perfect minis for a party. Shape patties to fit small pistolette French rolls.To Freeze: Form the patties, dredge in flour and line them up on a parchment covered baking sheet, freezing until solid. Transfer to a zipper freezer bag and use within 3 months for best flavor. Cook frozen patties in hot oil.Source: http://deepsouthdish.comPRINT THISRequires Adobe Reader - download it free!Deep South Dish

Food Joke

A Change In Plans Source: "Today's Woman" magazine, Barbara A Tyler. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. I'm telling you in advance, so don't act surprised. Since Ms. Stewart won't be coming, I've made a few small changes: Our sidewalk will not be lined with homemade, paper bag luminaries. After a trial run, it was decided that no matter how cleverly done, rows of flaming lunch sacks do not have the desired welcoming effect. The dining table will not be covered with expensive linens, fancy China or crystal goblets. If possible, we will use dishes that match and everyone will get a fork. Since this IS Thanksgiving, we will refrain from using the plastic Peter Rabbit plate and the Santa napkins from last Christmas. Our centerpiece will not be the tower of fresh fruit and flowers that I promised. Instead we will be displaying a hedgehog-like decoration hand-crafted from the finest construction paper. The artist assures me it is a turkey. We will be dining fashionably late. The children will entertain you while you wait. I'm sure they will be happy to share every choice comment I have made regarding Thanksgiving, pilgrims and the turkey hotline. Please remember that most of these comments were made at 5:00 AM upon discovering that the turkey was still hard enough to cut diamonds. As accompaniment to the children's recital, I will play a recording of tribal drumming. If the children should mention that I don't own a recording of tribal drumming, or that tribal drumming sounds suspiciously like a frozen turkey in a clothes dryer, ignore them. They are lying. We toyed with the idea of ringing a dainty silver bell to announce the start of our feast. In the end, we chose to keep our traditional method. We've also decided against a formal seating arrangement. When the smoke alarm sounds, please gather around the table and sit where you like. In the spirit of harmony, we will ask the children to sit at a separate table. In a separate room. Next door. Now I know you have all seen pictures of one person carving a turkey in front of a crowd of appreciative onlookers. This will not be happening at our dinner. For safety reasons, the turkey will be carved in a private ceremony. I stress "private" meaning: Do not, under any circumstances, enter the kitchen to laugh at me. Do not send small, unsuspecting children to check on my progress. I have an electric knife. The turkey is unarmed. It stands to reason that I will eventually win. When I do, we will eat. Before I forget, there is one last change. Instead of offering a choice between 12 different scrumptious desserts, we will be serving the traditional pumpkin pie, garnished with whipped cream and small fingerprints. You will still have a choice: take it or leave it. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. She probably won't come next year either. I am thankful.
