Another viewer-requested video: Crab Bisque

Recipe:

Ingredients
2 tbsp. butter
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp. tomato paste
3 tbsp. flour
4 cups fish (or vegetable) stock (or low-sodium vegetable broth)
Juice from canned crab meat/clam, juice
1 cup white wine/sherry
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 cans of lump crab meat
Freshly chopped parsley or chives, for garnish

Directions
1. In a large, heavy pot over medium heat, heat butter. Add onion, celery and carrot. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Season with pepper, and Old Bay seasoning, then stir in garlic and tomato paste. Cook until garlic is fragrant and tomato paste coats vegetables, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle over flour and cook until absorbed, 1 minute more.

2. Pour in fish stock and wine, then stir in bay leaf. Reduce heat and let simmer until liquid is reduced and flavors meld, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.

3. Remove bay leaf and puree soup with an immersion blender on high until very smooth. Return to medium low heat and stir in cream and half of the crab meat. Cook until just warmed through, about 5 minutes.

4. Divide among bowls and garnish with remaining crab meat and parsley before serving.
