Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Imagine yourself at The commander's Palace in New Orleans when you bite into these jumbo lump crabcakes. Easy to make at home with the taste of NOLA that they are famous for.

1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat
1 small red onion, diced
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1/2 cup mayonnaise, more if needed
1/3 cup Creole mustard
2 teaspoons capers, drained and chopped
1/2 medium hard-cooked egg, diced
1 teaspoon grated horseradish
1 dash kosher salt
1 dash freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon Creole seafood seasoning
2 tablespoons butter
Carefully pick over the crab to remove any shell fragments. Try not to break up the crab.
Combine the onion, bell pepper, mayonnaise, mustard, capers, hard-boiled egg, horseradish, salt, pepper, and Creole seasoning in a bowl. Mix well. Add the crab and stir gently taking care not to break up the crab too much.
Form the crab mixture into evenly sized cakes (about 3 ounces in size) and place on waxed paper.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add half the butter. Add half of the crab cakes to the pan and cook for 1 1/2 minutes or until browned on the bottom. Very carefully turn the crab cakes over and cook until browned, about another 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Carefully remove the cakes from skillet and place on a serving platter or plate. Repeat with the remaining butter and crab cakes.
Serve hot with desired condiments.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
