    • 🧈 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

    • 4 stalks celery, cut into 1/4-inch slices
    • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
    • 🧂 Salt and ground black pepper to taste

    • 🥔 7 potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

STEPS

1

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, celery, thyme, salt, and pepper in hot butter until onion and celery start to soften, about 5 minutes.

2

Stir potatoes, milk, broth, cream, and clam juice into onion mixture. Bring to a simmer; cook until potatoes are soft, about 10 minutes.

3

Pour broth mixture into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth.

4

Return pureed soup to pot and stir in crabmeat. Cook until soup is hot and crab is heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

💡 For a thicker sauce, use more cream and less milk.You can also garnish with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice for added freshness.If reheating leftovers, do so on low heat to avoid curdling the cream.
