    This recipe is excellent, quick and easy, except for the time it take to pick the crabmeat.

    I thought it was ok at best. I had to make some changes to it. I thought it was too thin. It was like milk with crab in it. So I made another rue with a half stick of butter and more flour. I also added another 3/4 cups of green onion. I also added more parm right to the soup while it cooked. It seemed better, but still needed something.

    I like this recipe. Those looking for a quick crab soup need look no further. However, if you have visited South Carolina and outlying areas and are seeking an authentic She Crab Soup, this misses the mark just a bit. All-in-all, a good recipe, though.

    This Crab Soup is AMAZING and SO EASY! I followed the recipe exactly. Paul Deen's recipes are the best! I always look to her when I want to make something that people will gush over.

    Made this for dinner tonight for the first time. My husband loves it as well as I. I used half & half in place of the heavy cream and milk to cut out some of he fat. And I sure corn starch in the place of flour as well. So now that I cut some of the fat I can have a 2nd bowl! Great Job Paula!!

    I made this for a weekend getaway. It was delicious and easy!

    I did however need to add more seasoning. I added Old Bay and my husband said it could have used more. (He's not really into lots of spice So, taste as you go.

    I will absolutly make this again!

    I wanted to make crab soup and I've never tried it before. I came to this site and once again it didn't dissappoint. Paula always has the best recipes. This soup is delicious and great for a cold day. It was simple to make. I just had to thicken it a little more and since I didn't have fish stock I used chicken. I will make this soup again....the flavor is out of this world. Thanks Paula for another great recipe. The only problem is I'm not sure I made enough!!!

    I tried this soup last night, and not having any sherry on hand, I used white wine, and also substituted homemade chicken stock in place of fish stock. IT WAS INCREDIBLE!!!!! There used to be a restaurant near my home where the chef made his 'secret' crab soup recipe and it closed and NO one could tell me where the chef went. His soup was PHENOMENAL, but THIS puts his to shame! It was SOOOOOOOO simple to make, throw it all in a pot and it's ready! I highly recommend this to EVERYONE, especially anyone who loves seafood. It is an INCREDIBLE soup! Forget what someone said about 'no flavor', I think their taste buds must have died or something. This was good enough for seconds for my family and I will make it again soon!

    I was not impressed with this crab soup. At first it lacked flavor, so my husband added more lemon-pepper seasoning... still didn't help. Something was definitely missing from this dish...and neither of us could put our finger on what was wrong with it. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't make it again. I expected a lot more, so I was quite disappointed. To be fair, my parents (both 80 years of age thoroughly enjoyed it. To each his own. :o
