🄣When ladling out a heaping bowl

of Cream of Crab, what do you get?

Ā 

Fans of Chesapeake Bay Cuisine love a heaping bowl of cream of crab for its sweet, delicate crab flavor and thick velvety texture. Of course, the loads of blue crab lump meat keep them ladling for seconds! Plus, the spicy pop from Old Bay seasoning gives it that distinguishing ā€œBaltimore Flavor.ā€ The spice’s bold and savory mix with celery salt, paprika, mustard powder, and bay leaves enhance the buttery salty-sweet crab meat. The soup’s thickness sometimes mistakeably categories the soup as a bisque. Yes, a normal assertion, but the differences are clear. Seafood bisques grind up the shells as a paste in the mix for an added thickness and umami, oceanic flavor. Cream of Crab reaches this thickness from half-and-half cream and thickened with butter-flour roux. The popularity of the taste has traveled the generations. Introduced by the Scots Irish in the 1700s in Georgia, the Maryland crowd has claimed this unique recipe as their distinct taste of the Chesapeake Bay!

Crab Depot delivers with a soup that captures all this goodness! In quart or gallon quantities, you can serve up a meal starter or side to any meal with genuine USA Blue Crab Lump Meat. In fact, this rich, savory soup can even headline as a dinner entrƩe. For over 30 years, the crew has kept to the original recipe. Introduced sherry to give the soup an added depth and sweetness, along with aromatics from finally chopped onions and celery seal the deal. An umami quality to the soup and the alluring smells from the recipe enhancements only embellish the buttery crab oceanic aromas.

This holiday season, include Depot’s Cream of Crab to your menu for a sophisticated taste and serving tied to the deepest tradition!
