Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: < 30 minutes

  • 8 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup onion, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk, scalded
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 dash white pepper
  • 1/4 cup sherry
  • 12 ounces crab meat
  • 1 cup crackers, finely crumbled
  • 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, finely grated

Crumble crackers between waxed paper with a rolling pin. Reserve just enough crumbs and cheese to top the casserole. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large heavy skillet. Add onion and saute for about 5 minutes or until golden. Slowly add flour, stirring constantly over low heat. When flour is blended, gradually add hot milk (scalded) and blend with a whip.

Continue stirring over low heat until the sauce begins to thicken. Add salt, pepper, and sherry, and continue stirring in a bowl. Mix crab meat, sauce, and the extra cracker crumbs and cheese. Place in a lightly greased baking dish.

Sprinkle reserved cracker crumbs and cheese on the top of the casserole. Dot the top with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter.

Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
