This cream of crab soup is so rich and delicious! I make this a lot, especially in the winter with some nice, hot rolls! Use more Old Bay to suit your taste. I also recommend using lump crabmeat. Enjoy!!

Tips:

  • Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh crab meat, frozen crab meat will work, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the crab meat. Crab meat is delicate and will toughen if it is cooked for too long. Simmer the soup for just until the crab meat is heated through.
  • Use a good quality sherry. A dry sherry is best for this soup. Avoid using a sweet sherry, as it will make the soup too sweet.
  • Serve the soup hot. Crab soup is best served hot, with a crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Crab soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover crab meat. With its creamy texture and rich flavor, crab soup is sure to please everyone at the table.
