Cream of Crab Soup Ingredients

Method

Directions for Cream of Crab Soup

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and celery, sautéing until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the Roux

    Stir in the flour and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly to create a roux. Be careful not to let it brown.

  3. 3

    Add Broth

    Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Cream and Crab

    Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, lump crab meat, and Old Bay seasoning. Allow to heat through for another 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Season to Taste

    Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
