I have used this recipe now for a number of years and it is the best however the ingredients call for to amounts of water 21/2 cups and 2-3 cups hot water while the method calls for 1/2 and 12 and water so three amounts of water can fix that

What is "crab base"? Where does one get it? It’s not in any of the grocery stores here.

Penzeys.com has many types of soup bases, more and more grocery stores are starting to get a variety of soup bases in them. They work out much better than boullion cubes when seasoning soup.
