For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the bisque. Fresh corn kernels, cut straight from the cob, will elevate this dish when in season. Do not overcook the crabmeat, as it can become rubbery. Adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning to your preference. Serve with crusty bread for dipping.
