Steps:
- In a soup pot, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until just soft. Add the wine and simmer until all liquid except about 1/2 cup has evaporated. Remove from the heat, strain and discard the shallots. Return the reduced wine to the pot and add the stock. Bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and leeks, season with salt and sauté until just tender. Set aside.
- Stir the cornstarch into 2 tablespoons of water and stir it and the saffron into the boiling soup. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the carrots and leeks and the half-and-half or cream. Cook until very hot. (If using half-and-half, do not let it boil.) Add the crab meat, season with salt and pepper and serve.
