Corn and Crab Soup is a cheats recipe to get a lot of flavour in less than 10 minutes. When the weather is cold, this warming tasty bowl of soup will satisfy 4 people or 2 very hungry ones. Served as a main dish with crusty bread. Corn and Crab Soup made with fresh or tinned sweetcorn tested with success. Lastly, I often add a little mustard as extra heat without overpowering the crab.
