This recipe comes from one of our local chefs, Patrick Mould. He calls it the quintessential Louisiana Bisque. I would have to agree with him.

This bisque was amazing! The corn and crab flavors were perfect, and the broth was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This bisque was a complete disaster! The broth was curdled, and the corn and crab were mushy. I had to throw the whole thing away. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm a fan of corn and crab, but I didn't love this bisque. The broth was too thick and heavy for my taste, and the corn and crab flavors were overpowered by the roux. I would not make this again.

This bisque was a disappointment. The corn and crab flavors were barely noticeable, and the broth was bland and watery. I would not recommend this recipe.

I thought this bisque was just okay. The corn and crab flavors were there, but they were a bit muted. The broth was also a bit thin. I think I would prefer a bisque with a thicker, more flavorful broth.

This bisque was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The corn and crab flavors were delicious, and the broth was creamy and flavorful. I would make it again, but I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this bisque. The corn and crab flavors were well-balanced, and the broth was creamy and flavorful. I would definitely make this again.

This is my go-to recipe for corn and crab bisque. It's so easy to make, and it always turns out perfectly. I love the creamy texture and the flavorful broth. I usually serve it with a side of salad and crusty bread.

I've made this bisque several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's easy to make, and it's always delicious. I like to add a little extra cayenne pepper to give it a bit of a kick.

I'm a big fan of corn and crab, so I knew I had to try this recipe. It didn't disappoint! The bisque was rich and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. I served it with a side of crusty bread, and it was the perfect meal for a cold winter n
