5 slices bacon
1 tablespoon clarified butter
¾ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped green bell pepper
½ cup chopped celery
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
¼ cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon brandy
1 ½ teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
3 cups fresh corn kernels
4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
1 ½ quarts chicken stock
½ cup butter
½ cup all-purpose flour
3 cups heavy cream
1 cup half-and-half cream
1 pound peeled and deveined small shrimp
1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
1 pound fresh lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed

Steps:

  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon, and reserve the grease. Allow the bacon to cool, then crumble, and set aside with the grease.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of clarified butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, green pepper, celery, and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 10 minutes. Pour in the white wine and brandy, and bring to a simmer.

Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 10 minutes.
  • While the soup is simmering, melt 1/2 cup of butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour has turned the color of peanut butter to make a roux, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir the roux into the soup, and pour in the heavy cream, half-and-half cream, reserved bacon and grease, and shrimp. Return to a simmer over medium-high heat, and cook until the shrimp are no longer translucent in the center, the potatoes are tender, and the soup has thickened, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with Creole seasoning, and stir in the crab meat to serve.

Corn Crab & Crawfish Bisque or Chowder image

This recipe is very easy to make and tastes amazing. Don't use Chinese crawfish! If you can't find Louisiana crawfish, substitute with shrimp. This recipe does not have the crawfish boulettes, or stuffed crawfish heads, which is how this is cooked for everyday meals. For special occasions and holidays the boulettes are...

Categories     Cream Soups

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 lb russet potatoes, peeled and cubed (only for chowder)
1/2 lb bacon, fried crisp, drained and crumbled
1/2 c + 2 tbsp. flour
16 oz homemade or low sodium canned chicken broth
2 can(s) creamed corn
1 can(s) whole kernel corn, drained
1 bunch green onions, sliced thin and divided
1 small onion, minced
1 celery stalk, minced
1 tsp garlic, minced
1/2 bell pepper, diced
1 c heavy cream
1 c milk
1/4 c sherry
1/2 tsp lea & perrin worchestershire sauce
1 lb crawfish tails w/fat (louisiana crawfish - don't use chinese)
1 lb lump or special claw crabmeat, picked through for shells
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
salt, & white pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Fry bacon, drain & crumble & set aside. Saute onions, 3/4 of the green onions, bell pepper and celery in the bacon grease (or butter). When onions are clear stir in the garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
  • 2. Over medium heat add flour and make a light roux, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes, or until the roux just starts to slightly darken. Add chicken stock, milk and heavy cream then simmer until desired consistency.
  • 3. Add corn, crawfish, crabmeat, sherry, and worchestershire sauce. Stir well and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Season with salt, pepper to taste.
  • 4. Serve in individual bowls and garnish with bacon crumbles and reserved green onions. Enjoy!
  • 5. *NOTES: Remember - if you can't get Crawfish, use Shrimp instead. Fresh cut corn makes this recipe even better. Use about 2 cups of fresh corn, with the milk from the cob. Hold the shucked corn over a bundt pan and just cut the corn from the cob. Go back over the cob with the dull side of the knife blade to get the extra milk. All of it will fall into the bundt pan for easy clean-up and transfer to your pot. *CHOWDER: Cook 2 lbs. peeled and diced russet potatoes and 1 Tbsp. salt in saucepan, in milk just enough to cover potatoes, then set aside. Coarsley smash potatoes leaving small chunks and add to pot along with the chicken broth, milk and cream. Follow remaining directions through the end of the recipe.

BRENNAN'S CORN AND CRAB SOUP



Brennan's Corn and Crab Soup image

I'm not sure where I found this recipe, but it's a very rich soup. I like to add additional herbs - whatever strikes me at the moment, but I usually add some Italian seasoning and sometimes some spicy Mrs. Dash.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cups onions, chopped fine
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
8 cups fresh corn kernels
6 cups heavy cream
1 lb lump crabmeat, picked over
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
salt
white pepper

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven and saute the onion until clear and tender.
  • Blend in the flour, then the corn kernels.

  • Pour in the cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook over medium heat until the corn is tender, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the crab and parsley, cook an additional 5 minutes, then serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Whenever possible, use fresh corn and crab meat.
  • Don't overcook the corn: Overcooked corn will lose its sweetness and become tough. Cook the corn just until it is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Use a good quality stock: The stock you use will also contribute to the flavor of your soup. Use a homemade stock if you can, or a high-quality store-bought stock.
  • Season to taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings in the soup to your liking. Add more salt, pepper, or cayenne pepper if desired.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or cilantro can add a pop of color and flavor to your soup. Add them just before serving.

Conclusion:

Corn and crab soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed all year round. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, or a special occasion dinner.
