  • Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons bleached all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup minced yellow onions
  • 1 cup corn kernels (from 2 ears corn)
  • 2 tablespoons minced shallots
  • 2 tablespoons minced celery

Directions

  • Heat the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the flour a tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until blended. Continue stirring to make a light brown roux, 5 to 10 minutes.

Add the bay leaves and bring to a boil. Add the milk, cream, and the crab boil, if using. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.

  • Stir in the crabmeat and green onions and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaves.

  • Serve hot ladled into bowls.
