Creamy Crab Soup Delight

Ingredients Prep: Gather 1 lb of fresh crab meat, 1 cup chopped onions, 1 cup chopped celery, 1 cup chopped carrots, 4 cups seafood stock, 1 cup heavy cream, and seasonings (salt, pepper, and Old Bay seasoning).

Sauté Veggies: In a large pot, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add onions, celery, and carrots. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add Stock: Pour in the seafood stock and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for 10 minutes to enhance the flavors.

Incorporate Crab: Gently fold in the crab meat, allowing it to warm through, about 5 minutes.

Creamy Touch: Stir in the heavy cream, mixing well to create a rich texture. Simmer for another 5 minutes.

Season to Taste: Add salt, pepper, and Old Bay seasoning to taste, adjusting for personal preference.

Serve Hot: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color.
