CRAB IMPERIAL CASSEROLE
YUM! Fennel adds a subtle sweet note, but you can omit if it's not on hand. You can also adjust sherry to taste, I just love sherry with creamy crab dishes. This recipe calls for a casserole dish but use individual ramekins if desired, just adjust to a shorter baking time.

Steps:
- Saute onion, celery and fennel in 1 tbl. of butter until soft and translucent being careful not to brown much or burn, over med heat about 5 minute Add pinches of salt and pepper to taste, remove from heat. Add remaining butter and let melt in pan, set aside.
- In medium bowl, whisk eggs with cream and mayo. Stir in next 6 ingredients through crackers.
- Fold in onion mixture, gently fold in crabmeat, stir in sherry.
- Pour into buttered casserole dish, preferably glass dish so you can monitor the browning on the sides, but any dish will do.
- Top with shredded cheese and sprinkle with paprika. I used fresh parmesan on top of the cheddar blend for a slight crust.
- Bake 20-30 minute at 400 degrees, or until lightly browned and bubbly. Enjoy!
