Zydeco Chop Chop Crab Cakes

As any crab cake connoisseur will tell you, the gold standard in crab cakes is "no filler and all the flavor". No filler and all the flavor is a job tailor-made for Zydeco Chop Chop! Zydeco Chop Chop brings the flavor of vegetables without the bulk of fresh produce.  Chef Carolyn Shelton shows us the magic of adding ZCC to create the perfect crabcake!
