Directions
Transfer celery mixture to a food processor. Add shrimp, mustard, lemon juice, hot sauce, and Old Bay seasoning. Cover and process until well combined. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl. Fold in crab meat.
Form crab mixture into 12 (1/2-inch-thick) cakes. Place patties on a rimmed baking pan. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
While patties are chilling, prepare Ginger-Soy Veggie Noodle Salad: Toss veggie noodles, red bell pepper, shredded carrots, green onions, and cilantro together in a medium bowl. Whisk together rice vinegar, lemon juice, soy sauce, and grated ginger. Whisk in canola oil. Toss vinaigrette with veggie mixture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Add 1 tablespoon oil to the same skillet and heat over medium. Cook crab cakes in batches for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once halfway through or until golden brown (145 degrees). Drain cakes on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve with Ginger-Soy Veggie Noodle Salad. Sprinkle sesame seeds, if desired.
