Excellent! Very easy to prepare and delicious. this recipe is a keeper. No substitutions are necessary. You could add slightly more sherry but it really is not necessary. Would suggest serving with a very light menu. -
I like the recipe but find it actually works better as a seafood bisque rather than crab. I used crawfish meat and shrimp and it was delicious. I also prefer to use cream of chicken soup instead of mushroom. I recommend the "tomato soup with roasted herbs" or the "cream of chicken with herbs" and just a little less pepper. -
I followed the recipe to a T, but it seemed very runny and had a strong taste of tomato. Next time, I'll try it without the tomato soup. It was good though, but it didn't taste like crab bisque.

I am college student in South Carolina with a passion for food. I recently discovered my passion for cooking, and found that whether or not the dish is for me, I love to cook for others as well. In fact the majority of what I cook is not for me, but for my family. I live at the beach, and am a lover of all foods. I enjoy surfing, fishing, outdoor activities, and cooking. I hope that I can be an asset to this site.
