Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 cups Water
2 12 oz cans tomatoes -- minced
1/2 large Onion -- chopped
2 Carrots -- sliced
1 can Sweet corn
1/2 pound String beans -- cut into
-1 inch pieces
1 Hot pepper -- minced
Old Bay seasoning -- to

1 pound Crabmeat

Put everything but the crabmeat into a large pot and bring to a boil. Cover
and simmer, adding crabmeat, for about 2 hours. Don't buy the lump crabmeat,
it's a waste. I used leftover crabmeat and clawmeat, which gives it a bit
more sweetness. If you're buying crabmeat, it's probably best to by 1/2 lb
each of claw and backfin.
