Sautéed crab cakes big winner
FROM STAFF REPORTS
Kennebec Journal
There must be some benefit to being a single guy and having to fend for yourself in the kitchen.
In late February, Matt Borman of Oakland, a professed bachelor who likes to cook, won a $500 cash prize for his home-style Cilantro Crab Cakes.
Borman, 30, won the prize in the Portland Shellfish Co. Crab Cake Recipe Contest. He was one of seven Culinary Arts students at Southern Maine Community College in South Portland who participated in the cook-off.
The shellfish company supplied the fresh Atlantic crab meat used in the contest and culinary arts department chairman, chef Wilfred D. Beriau, helped organize the competition. Judges from Portland Shellfish chose the winner.
Borman's crab cakes were his practiced version of a home recipe.
"I got my recipe from my mom," he said, of Terry Borman of Oakland, a nurse/case manager. His dad, Don Borman, is retired assistant superintendent of schools at Lawrence.
The cook-off was not a high-stress competition, he said.
"I didn't have to cook in front of anybody. We could practice the week before. The day before the cook-off, I took the crab meat home, mixed it into cakes and just had to cook them at the school. Chef Beriau took my cakes in to the next dining room to the judges. There was no stress involved."
