How To Make crab stew

  • 1
    Open canned crab meat and pour into a colander and make sure all crab-shell is removed. In a large pot on slightly high heat add stick of butter and melt; add a small onion and tender. Once onion is tender combine (heaping tablespoons) corn starch (for thickening).
  • 2
    Add crab meat, heavy cream, whole milk, cream of potato soup, 12 drops of TABASCO sauce, salt and pepper to taste. Mix Well and cut heat back to a medium low because the milk will curdle if you cook fast. (simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring periodically.)
