Cock-a-leekie soup

We’ve made this recipe many times, and I’m not sure why it hasn’t ended up on the site (probably because John makes it more than I do). I recommend halving it — still makes a ton. Full recipe below. I usually add a bit more liquid than called for and substitute water + better than boullion for the canned broth.

Maryland Crab Soup

This was my first fail of the challenge, but not on account of the recipe, which looked both enjoyable and accurate. I somehow ended up with crab that had turned bad, and we had to throw it out.
