Baby, it’s cold outside crabmeat soup

Creamy seafood soup with spinach and chunks of fish, served in a white bowl with a side of crusty bread on a wooden kitchen counter.

My wife wooed me with this soup. But what with the soup’s ridiculous richness, I suppose she could have also been trying to kill me. I’ve always thought of crabs as something you eat at a ocean-side shack, but there’s no better time to enjoy this dish than a cold winter night next to a fireplace.
