This recipe will introduce you to an inexpensive
gourmet treat.

Preparation: Flake crab meat into strands, removing
any cartilage. Mix with sherry. Wash onions; remove
roots and greens; finely mince white part. Wash and
pat dry lettuce leaves; arrange on round serving
plate. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites. When eggs
begin to stiff- en, slowly add milk. When eggs are
stiff, fold in crab, onions, salt and cornstarch. Eggs

soup.

turning while eggs become firm. Remove to serving
platter. Serve.
