["In a skillet over medium heat, saute the celery and onion in half the olive oil.", "You are not looking to brown the vegetables, really, but soften them.", "This will take about 10 minutes.", "Halfway through, season with white pepper and kosher salt.", "Remove the vegetables from the skillet and allow to cool.", "Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat with the lemon juice, half of the eggs, and the breadcrumbs.", "Mix together, thoroughly, with a wooden spoon.", "When the vegetables are cool (such that you can handle them easily with bare hands) fold them into the crab mixture until evenly distributed.", "Form the crab-and-vegetables mixture into four balls and flatten them into thick disks about 3\" in diameter.""
