Cream of Crab Soup w/Crab Toast #food #seafood #soup #fyp #foodgram @oldbay_seasoning

Maryland cream of crab soup has one of the most special places in my heart. As a quintessential Maryland Girl— a former resident of Pretty Girl County to be specific — I love all things crab. Throw some old bay in there and you’ve basically set a trap for me. Here’s hoping it’s also a trap for somebody’s fine ass son 😉 This recipe is adapted from @legalseafoods cream of crab recipe, which my mom introduced me to almost 20 years ago. I hope you love this recipe nearly as much as I do! Ingredients: onions, small dice
celery
garlic (optional)
Old Bay seasoning
seasoned lobster base, I use Better Than Bouillon
clam broth
heavy cream
fresh squeezed lemon juice
unsalted butter
cup flour
White pepper 
Kosher salt
Cayenne pepper
crab meat, I usually use jumbo lump, but lump is fine. That’s what I used here.
Chives For exact measurements check out my Gimme A Bite Substack linked in bio. Subscribe for more recipes! Directions 1. In a heavy bottomed pot, melt better over medium heat. Add onions, celery, garlic, Old Bay and lobster base. Stir for about -10 minutes, or until vegetables are soft. 2. Add flour, stir to make a roux. You might have to add more softened butter if flour doesn’t incorporate fully. Cook on medium low heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly so that roux doesn’t brown. 3. Slowly add fish stock and heavy cream. Stir and bring to a boil. Soup should begin to thicken. 4. Turn heat down and bring soup to a simmer. Cook for another 20 minutes. 5. Cut heat, add lemon juice, salt, pepper and cayenne to taste. 6. Place two oz. of lump crab meat into each bowl (or cup), ladle soup over, garnish with chives, a little more crab meat and a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning #crab #explore #cooking #foodie #soup
