1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, divided, half softened 1/4 cup chopped green onions 1 small clove garlic, minced 1/4 pound mushrooms, sliced 1 teaspoon chopped cilantro 1/4 teaspoon white pepper 1 1/4 cups creme fraiche 1 tablespoon flour 1 pound cooked crab meat 1/2 cup shredded Jack cheese 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Step 2 Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter with the flour in a small bowl until smooth. Stir it into the creme fraiche mixture and simmer over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes.
