LINDA'S DELICIOUS HOT CRAB DIP



Linda's Delicious Hot Crab Dip image

One of my mother-in-law's friends brought this delicious dip to a party and I had to have the recipe. Please only use full fat ingredients in this and real crabmeat. If you are lucky enough to have some fresh cooked crab meat, then you may certainly use that in place of canned-just don't use the "fake crab" as a substitute as it just won't taste the same. The size of the can is the same as a regular tuna fish can-I will update the exact size next time I make this. Note:The leftover dip is also great as a sandwich spread on a lightly toasted bagel with lettuce & tomato.

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh crab meat, frozen crab meat will also work.
  • Don't overcook the crab: Crab meat is delicate and can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dip, so use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar cheese is a good choice.
  • Add some spice: If you like spicy food, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the dip. You can also add some chopped green onions or jalapeños for extra flavor.
  • Serve with your favorite dippers: This dip is great served with crackers, chips, or vegetables. You can also use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps.
