Tomato And Crab Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add the fennel and leeks and season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are just tender, about 25 minutes.
• Add the Sambuca and cook until evaporated, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, heavy cream and ½ cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat; cook until the fennel is soft, about 15 minutes.
• Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth (or puree in the pot with an immersion blender). Return the soup to the pot; return to a simmer and season with salt. Top each serving with the crab and fennel fronds.

Steps:

• Saute onion and bell pepper till soft.
• Add crab meat, milks and soup.
• I add salt, pepper, garlic salt, crab boil, seafood seasoning- whatever floats your boat.
• Sometimes I add corn- frozen.
• I add or lessen the milks as to how much I am making- sometimes I add some stewed tomatoes.
• Can be made thicker and served over rice- also good with shrimp.
• Do not boil- the milks will separate and it will be ruined! SIMMER ONLY!
• Good on a cold day!
