Crab Stew Is A One Dish Wonder
If you’re running short of time to slap together a four course meal, crab stew is your solution. One dish for cooking and cleaning. It’s so simple and convenient yet there’s no sacrifice to the yum-o-meter.
I like all things Stew.
I have a good friend named Stew who is a Rubics cube expert, solving the puzzle in record breaking time. He is also a yo-yo master, dazzling with his sick skills. He once put a lampshade on his head to use as a formal headdress and pretend married my four year old daughter. I’m not making this up!
What does this have to do with the Crab Stew recipe I propose you make?
Well, nothing really. But…
If you want to solve puzzles and dazzle your dinner guests with your sick skills then I suggest you hop on board the Stewwy train. Because from my experience Stews are the one hit wonders of the world, and this recipe is just that.
