Crab and Corn Soup


This crab and corn soup is a very satisfying thickened soup without the fat because the creaminess of the soup comes from the corn. Fresh crab meat adds a touch of luxury to this simple chinese soup. Can someone tell me why crab and corn go so well together? barter trade exchange
