CRAB AND CORN SOUP - Karen Jackson

2 cups stock (any kind you like I use vegetable, but chicken would be good
also)
1 cup creamed corn
1/2 cup corn kernals
1 cup crab meat
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 egg (or 2 egg whites) whisked
1 tablespoon green onion

Method
Bring stock to boil, add corn and crab, return to boil (at this stage I put
the mix thru the blender- I always find crab too chewy). Mix cornstarch with
a little water to make a paste and add gradually to the soup, stir until
thickens. Dribble eggs into soup in a thin stream while stirring constantly
to produce egg threads. Garnish with green onions
Serves 3
