This nostalgic Maryland Crab Soup showcases sweet claw meat in a surprisingly simple preparation that lets the delicate flavor shine. Fresh tomatoes, sweet corn and rich butter create a delicate broth that's completed with a splash of milk. The charming instruction to bring to a boil but do not boil" highlights the care needed to preserve the crab's tender texture. A taste of Chesapeake tradition that's elegant enough for company yet simple enough for weeknight dinners."

💬 Uncle Dave says... The instructions say to bring it to a boil but do not boil! I am assuming that this means once you first see it boiling to take it off the heat.
