Soup for a cool evening
If you like seafood - you just might like this soup.
Saute in 1/2 cup butter :
1 med onion chopped fine
1/4 c. green pepper chopped fine
Stir in about 2-3 tablespoons of flour
Add:
6 cups milk or half and half (I used 8 cups of milk)
1 can cream style corn
A little garlic powder
A little white pepper
Dash of hot sauce
Cook until heated
Stir in crab meat (I use 1 pound).
Heat thoroughly, strrring often. Garnish with parsley and lemon if desired. Makes a very thick bisque, Serves 6-8.
We really enjoyed it. It seemed to get better and better for the 3 days
it took us to finish the pot of soup.
Don came home tonight with 2 pounds of mushrooms
from the grocery store.
I think that means he’s ready for another pot of
Cream of Mushroom soup.
