This is a recipe that is a favorite of many of us coastal Delaware natives. Our newly elected Vice -President, Joe Biden, has more than likely been served this when he came to political dinners. There are many varied crab imperial recipes, but this is one we enjoy. I hope you will try it and tell me what you think.

I added a little bit of chopped celery and onion to my crab imperial. It gave it a nice crunch and flavor.

I was short on time, so I used canned crab meat. It still turned out well, but I would definitely recommend using fresh crab meat if you have the time.
