Preparation

  1. In heavy pot, combine the canned soups with smetana and milk. Heat gently, stirring until smooth.

  2. Add sherry and let it warm through - this takes the raw edge off the wine.

  3. Fold in the crabmeat carefully so you don't break up the pieces. Season with paprika, salt, white pepper, and Old Bay. (Taste as you go - the canned soups already have salt.)

  4. 10 mins

    Heat through gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve hot with crusty bread.
