Time 30m

Yield About 2 quarts (4 to 6 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 medium red bliss or other waxy potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning, or as needed
Salt
3 1/2 cups beef or vegetable stock, or as needed
2 tablespoons lemon juice, or as needed
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 large tomatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 pound claw crab meat, picked over and any cartilage discarded
Saltines, for serving

Steps:

In a large, deep pot over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the potatoes and sprinkle with pepper, 2 tablespoons Old Bay and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add 3 1/2 cups stock and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, wine and tomatoes. Cover and cook until the potatoes are tender and the flavors melded, 20 minutes to 1 hour.
Just before serving, add the crab and simmer just until thoroughly heated. If the soup seems too thick, add more stock as desired. Adjust the seasonings, adding salt, lemon or Old Bay to taste. Serve hot, with crackers.

VERACRUZANA CRAB SOUP

Veracruzana Crab Soup image

This is an elegant soup that I've served at dinner parties as well as family dinners. It has a spicy depth of flavor, resulting from the combination of pickled capers, pickled jalapeños (don't substitute fresh for canned here) and olives.

Categories dinner, soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield Serves six to eight

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, minced or put through a press
2 medium-size canned jalapeño chiles (en escabeche), seeded and chopped (about 3 tablespoons chopped)
1/4 cup chopped green olives
Scant 1/4 cup capers, drained, rinsed, and chopped
2 28-ounce cans tomatoes, drained and chopped
Salt (1 to 2 teaspoons)
1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed and diced
1 pound winter squash or zucchini, peeled and diced (about 2 cups diced)
A bouquet garni made with 2 sprigs each cilantro and mint, and 2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 1/2 pounds cooked crabmeat
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
3 limes, cut in wedges, for serving

Steps:

Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven, and add the onions. Cook, stirring, for five to 10 minutes until tender. Add the garlic and continue to cook for another minute or two, until the garlic begins to color. Add the tomatoes and about 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring, for about 15 minutes, until the tomatoes are somewhat cooked down and the mixture smells fragrant. Add the potatoes, the winter squash, chiles, olives, capers, bouquet garni and the oregano, and stir together for five minutes. Add 2 quarts water and salt to taste, and bring to a simmer. Simmer 30 minutes, until the potatoes and winter squash are tender. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt and/or garlic if you wish. Remove from the heat if not serving right away.
Bring the soup back to a bare simmer, and stir in the crab. Heat through, stirring and being careful not to let the soup boil or the crabmeat, which is already cooked, will become too rubbery. Just before serving, stir in the chopped cilantro, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
