CRABMEAT BISQUE MADE EASY
This is not a thick soup, yet it is creamy and so smooth to the palette. The aroma when cooking makes you want some before the potatoes are soft. I have made modifications due to allergy to corn (such as rice flour). I allow mine to slow-simmer with lid slightly ajar. Stir often so the film does not form on top. I have doubled my batch and still never have any for the freezer.

Steps:
- Put shells into food processor and grind 10 seconds. Scrape into a saucepan with bay leaf and water. Bring to a boil, then lower to simmer. After 45 minutes, strain into a clean large saucepan. Reserve 1/2 cup for boulettes. Bring remaining stock to a simmer. In a saucepan, make a roux, stirring constantly, with flour and vegetable oil. When it's a medium-dark, old-penny color, remove pan from heat and add onions, bell pepper, garlic and parsley. Cook, stirring until vegetables soften. Stir in tomato sauce, salt, cayenne and about 1/2 cup crab stock. Stir until crab stock disappears. Add roux mixture to the simmering crab stock. Whisk until blended. Cover pan and keep on lowest heat setting. Make boulettes: In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 3 tablespoons butter until bubbling. Add onions, celery, bell pepper and garlic; cook until vegetables soften. Stir in Worcestershire, peppers, salt, thyme and lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until ingredients are combined. Wet bread cubes with reserved crab stock. Add them and half reserved crabmeat to the pan. Stir until well-mixed and the mixture looks noticeably drier. Lower heat and cool 5 minutes. Stir green onions and parsley into crabmeat mixture. With a round soup spoon, scoop balls of the crabmeat mixture about 1 inch in diameter. Roll gently with hands to make them uniform. Heat 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat until it bubbles. Add crab balls, a few at a time, and roll them around until browned all over. (Or bake about 15 minutes in a 375-degree oven.) Check seasoning of the crab bisque and add salt, pepper or Tabasco to taste. Add reserved crabmeat. Let it simmer 1 or 2 more minutes, then ladle bisque into bowls or cups. Drop 1 or 2 crab boulettes into each bowl at the table.

Steps:
- For the crawfish stock: Remove the tails from the 5 pounds of boiled crawfish and peel, reserving the tail meat for the bisque and the peelings for the stock. Pinch off the claws and reserve. Put the tail peelings and claws in a stockpot and cover with the water. Bring to a boil. Simmer, uncovered for 45 minutes. Drain. You should have about 3 quarts of stock. Let the stock cool.
- For the bisque: Combine the oil and flour in a large cast iron or enameled cast iron Dutch oven over medium heat. Stirring slowly and constantly for 20 to 25 minutes, make a medium brown roux, the color of peanut butter. Add 3 cups of the onions, 1 1/2 cups bell peppers, and 1 1/2 cups celery. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne, and bay leaf. Cook, stirring often, for 6 to 7 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Add the reserved crawfish tails. Stir and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the crawfish stock and bring to a boil. Simmer over medium heat, uncovered, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of the green onions and the parsley.
- For the boulettes: In a food processor with a metal blade, combine the remaining onions, peppers, celery, garlic, 1 pound peeled crawfish tails, bread pieces and egg together. Pulse the mixture a few times to finely chop the mixture. *Do not puree. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and stir in the remaining green onions and parsley. Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Shape the mixture into small balls, about 1 tablespoon each. Season the bread crumbs with the Rustic Rub. Roll the balls in the seasoned bread crumbs. When the oil has reached 360 degrees F, deep-fry the boulettes until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove the boulettes from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season with Rustic Rub. Garnish each soup with a couple of the boulettes.
- Combine all ingredients and store in an air-tight container.
