In 6-quart kettle or stockpot, place vegetables, onions, garlic and cover
with seafood stock. Over medium heat, simmer, covered, until vegetables are
tender, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare roux. In skillet over low heat, melt butter. Gradually
stir in flour until it becomes smooth paste. Cook, stirring constantly,
until roux is light brown or almond color, about 5 or 6 minutes.

Add cream or milk to soup and bring soup to boil, then gradually add roux
and whip constantly to work out lumps until roux melts and soup thickens.
Add crab meat and salt and pepper. Makes about 8 (1-cup) servings.

Note: When reheating, add a bit more milk or cream until soup is of desired
consistency.
