BRENNAN'S CORN AND CRAB SOUP
I'm not sure where I found this recipe, but it's a very rich soup. I like to add additional herbs - whatever strikes me at the moment, but I usually add some Italian seasoning and sometimes some spicy Mrs. Dash.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven and saute the onion until clear and tender.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh crab and corn will give your soup the best flavor. If you can, buy live crab and cook it yourself.
- Don't overcook the crab: Crab meat is delicate and can easily become tough if it's overcooked. Cook the crab just until it's opaque and white.
- Use a good quality chicken broth: The chicken broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that's low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
- Season the soup to taste: The soup should be flavorful, but not too salty. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
- Serve the soup hot: Crab and corn soup is best served hot. You can garnish it with chopped green onions, cilantro, or a squeeze of lime.
