Corn & Crab Chowder

A hearty, rich soup thickened with pureed sweet white corn and topped with lump crab.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Drain canned crab, reserving liquid. Chop scallions; prepare two portions: 3 tablespoons and 1 tablespoon. Peel and mince ginger; prepare two portions: 1 teaspoon and 1 teaspoon. Juice the lemon; and prepare two portions: 1.5 teaspoons and remainder. Set aside 1/4 cup of the corn. Warm soup bowls.
  2. Bring remaining corn and milk to a boil in medium saucepan. Cover, remove from heat, let stand 10 minutes.
  3. Puree in blender. Add reserved crab liquid, 3 tablespoons scallions and 1 teaspoon ginger.
