Yummy hot clam dip. The clams aren't that noticeable, even for someone like me who is not a clam person. Delicious served on crackers.

- Preheat oven to 400.
- Mix all ingredients except parmesan cheese together.
- Place in oven safe casserole dish.
- Top with grated parmesan.
- Bake 20-25 minutes until bubbly. (5 minutes longer if covered).
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better the dip will taste. If you can, buy live clams or crabs and cook them yourself. Otherwise, look for seafood that is refrigerated or frozen and has been properly handled.
- Don't overcook the seafood: Overcooked seafood is tough and chewy. Cook the seafood just until it is opaque and firm, but still tender.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in the dip, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan are all good choices.
- Add some herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of the dip. Try adding some garlic, onion, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
- Serve the dip hot: Clam and crab dip is best served hot and bubbly. You can reheat it in the oven or microwave before serving.
