Ingredients
- 8 ounces linguine
- crab meat -- canned or chunks.
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups half-and-half
- 1/2 cup (or more) shredded (or grated) parmesan cheese
- Season with cayenne pepper
Directions
Boil linguine.
Melt butter in a saucepan and stir in flour. Let cook until mixture is sandy but not colored.
Gradually stir in half-and-half. Do not pour it all at once. Let it thicken.
Add in as much cheese as desired.
Add crab meat and simmer until crab is heated.
If desired, sprinkle in cayenne pepper. Add it very slowly -- a little bit goes a long way!
Serve with linguine and enjoy :)
