Since the cook book is slow in coming I thought I would put a few easy recites on the site for the holidays. Hope you enjoy. May God Bless you and shower you with his healing grace this during this Holy time of year. Chef Bill Vrazel Vrazel’s Crabmeat Au Gratin 1 lb. crabmeat ( if you really want to impress use Jumbo Lump) 1 1/2 cups cooked medium diced onions (sauté in 6 ounces butter) 1 quart half-n- half 6 oz. flour 3 egg yolks 6 oz. butter salt & pepper to taste 6 oz. parmesan cheese Melt butter and flour on medium heat, stirring for five minutes, but do not brown. Add half-n-half and bring to just a simmer. Turn heat off. Place egg yokes in a bowl and add three to four ounces of hot cream sauce and mix well. Repeat this step with three to four more ounces of cream sauce. Now add this to the remaining cream sauce and blend well. Adjust seasoning to taste with salt and pepper. Mix in onion and crabmeat.
