Soup season is back. From November through April we make two homemade crab soups at Cravin’ Crabs: Maryland Crab and Cream of Crab. Grab a cup on the way home, or take a quart for the whole house.
Two soups, two kinds of Maryland
Maryland Crab soup is the red one: a tomato broth loaded with vegetables and crab, with the kick Marylanders expect. It’s the one people grew up on.

Cream of Crab is the rich one: thick, creamy and full of crab. On a cold day it’s hard to beat.

Reheating leftovers
Keep leftover soup in the fridge and warm it slowly in a pot over low to medium heat, stirring often. Go especially easy with Cream of Crab: keep it at a gentle simmer so it doesn’t scorch or separate. More tips in our guide to storing and reheating crab.
