6 tablespoons butter (use unsalted)-the lobster base is very salty
½ cup flour
½ teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons lobster base (See note: VERY Important)
Note: Some brands claim less salt ( e.g., one base claims to have 1/3 less salt than ordinary bouillon.)
3 ½ cups 2% milk
1 cup dry white wine (Sauvignon blanc)
8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese--Monterey/cheddar mix has a good taste (see top photo)
1 (4 ounce) can tiny shrimp
2 (8 ounce) packages (flake style) imitation crabmeat (not the real stuff)[it's actually Alaskan pollack). Real crab seems to "dominate" the taste.
10 (6 inch) flour tortillas (old mission restaurant style)
paprika (for garnish)
