My Cream of Crab soup, pics.

 
 
 

 

 
Oh yeah got a lot of Crab, some sherry, other goodies, folks love this soup, I have it year round, want a cup?
 

I'm going to be picky here. First off, it looks delicious. I want some. But, and here's picky, a plastic spoon?

Email be a cup, please.

What the heck.........plastic spoon....................I have had it there and  it is always served  to me with a sterling silver spoon....I  must  rate!

Mr Hoffman, you are not in Mortons, you are in a BBQ joint, I wouldn't insult a Roadfooder with a metal spoon, fork & knife, metal, 4 for a dollar at Wal Mart, I do, but a throwaway spoon that gets the soup to your gub, is the way to go!

Greymo, being a member of our Hall of Fame here, is the reason for the Sterling Silver, a honor bestowed on only a chosen few! BTW, where is the last spoon you had?

At Mortons I want a cigar after my meal. With my meal I want a spoon that won't break. How come a a BBQ joint (your words) has crockery ramekins?

I stole them from Mortons!

Good choice.

p.m me you recipe lol

You guys crock be up!
 
I'd also love the recipe, if available.
 
Next to ice cream I love soup!  Don't know which I like more.
 
 

I'd pick soup over the two choices, Marlene. That cream of crab soup looks sooo good CTW!

Recipe, since I'm not particularly afraid of anyone opening up a store close by or if someone did, GREAT, welcome! Mind you I'll give the ingredients not the quantities as I make about 30 quarts at a time.
celery
carrot
green pepper
yellow pepper
scallions
all the above put into a Vita Mixer and liquidfied
in the pot it goes along with:
Crisp bacon, that been made to very small bits in a blender
nutmeg
whole cream
Old Bay
real butter
Creme Sherry
Claw Crab, completely picked by us, NO SHELL ALLOWED
Jumbo Lump Crab...no pasturized crab allowed, and being a Marylander, Bay crab, thanks.
The Crab goes in last,
simmer, never boil, as you would break the Cream
Edit. I forgot, I add a Lobster Base during the simmer, I buy it from an outfit in Fla.

Yeah, cream of crab ice cream doesn't sound quite so appealing.
 
Just put mine in a big coffee mug and I won't need to worry about the spoon.

looks good - crab chunks on spoon - well done.
 
for final presentation and color, I'd sprinkle a pinch of old bay on top. You are, afterall in Maryland.
 
I'm seriously thinking of planning a trip up Rt. 15.
 
 

Scorereader,  you could have a really  great outing  by  going to a  corn maze  near  Chubby's  and then going on there to eat.  You  son would  love it.

Indeed, Crumland Farms has a huge one and a bunch of other stuff for kids of all ages, it sits right on 15 about 18 miles south of me.

I have Old Bay in the soup already, I dont want to make it too salty.

If you'll serve it in that ramekin, I'll brown bag my own spoon!  

If there's that much crab in each spoonful, that's some crabby crab soup. Looks really good.

If I send you a jar, could you fill it and send it to me? Now, why did I move to Texas in 1963????????

I'm going to make that one of these days for sure!
 
Is the lobster base a liquid or paste?   I need to know these things!
 
THANKS!

THANKS!

A paste, Google Swiss Chalet Foods, they will send you 1 jar, I believe!

chewingthefat - save pinch of old bay per bowl, and put it at the end. I'm just saying, a little color. Or, a pinch of paprika? won't add salt, but would would add color.
 
BTW - greymo and ctf, good idea on doing a corn maze and chubby's stop. Maybe some apple picking too, up there. Maybe Oct 9 - I might actually be in town that weekend (this is marching band season afterall, so most weekends I'm out of town - last weekend I was in CT). Although, I won't know what the heck to get...too many choices! that's a good problem to have, I suppose.

By the time  you get finished with everything at the corn maze, and  your son takes the wagon ride to  pick out a  pumpkin,  he will be too tired and  hungry  to  pick  apples.  BUT,  there  are two  apple farms  on the same route  with  great apples that you can buy!

Greymo, by God you have been to more places in more towns than the Sterns I think!

Thanks for the tip, CTF!

If you would have had a metal detector  at the door, you would have found  out!
 
 
 
Oops............................sorry!  This is in response to being asked where I hid the sterling silver spoon!
