A classic Crabmeat AuGratin dish. French bread and salad. This is a WOW meal.

2 egg yolks
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp red pepper
1/4 tsp black pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Saute celery and onion in butter. Slowly blend in the flour; pour in the milk and stir constantly. Add the egg yolks and peppers. Cook 5 minutes. Mix crab into the sauce mixture. Add in a little melted cheese to the dish for an even richer flavor.
