This was a good starting point but I felt it needed more so I added some soy sauce, a small can of corn, onion powder, old bay and seasoned salt (took some ideas from other recipes on this site). And it turned out really good. I also increased the roux because we like our soup more like chowder.

This was very quick and easy to make. I added added extra ingredients, corn, celery etc. I used Swiss cheese as it adds to the flavor and would recommend more than just a dash of hot sauce (preferably with good flavor). It is a good recipe and very easy but I would recommend “spicing it up” a bit, to get more flavor.

My family didn't like it. Too bland.

This was wonderful! I made a few changes for personal preference: we like very thick soups, so I doubled the flour & butter mixture. I also cooked the roux for about 2 minutes, stirring the whole time, because most of my other recipes using a roux call for that before adding the milk. I also substituted a full one-pound can of refrigerated claw crabmeat, because it's what I had on hand. Thanks for the recipe!

Tasted good, but it took a LONG time to thicken.

I was very disappointed in this recipe. I followed it to the letter but the cheese separated and the consistancy was all wrong. I had to add more hot sauce just to get a flavor out of this. Probably wont make this one again.

This soup was very good. Next time I would add fresh crab instead of the canned crabmeat. I also added 1 cup of elbow pasta, just to make it a little chunky. It was great. Celia
