Ingredients

8 ounce package cream cheese or Neufchatel (light cream cheese) (softened)
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup light or regular sour cream
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon grated white onion
12 ounces lump crab meat (from 2 6-ounce cans)
1 teaspoon all-purpose seasoning salt (I use Lawry's Seasoned Salt)
½ teaspoon Worcestershire
½ lemon (juiced)
2 tablespoons finely chopped Italian parsley
a few shakes of Tabasco (to taste)
freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
crackers (baguette slices, or tortilla chips for serving)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream in a medium mixing bowl and stir until creamy. Add remaining ingredients and stir again until well combined. Transfer to a small baking dish and transfer to oven.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until browned and bubbly.
Serve with crackers, baguette slices, or tortilla chips.
Add the ingredients to a small (3- to 4-quart) slow cooker, stir to combine, and set it on LOW for 2 hours. It needs to cook until the cream cheese melts completely. Stir the dip and then let it cook for an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
It should keep well for up to an hour on the KEEP WARM or LOW setting. Be sure to stir it occasionally to prevent it from burning or separating.

SPICY CRAB DIP

Spicy Crab Dip image

This style of crab dip, often referred to as Maryland crab dip because of its Chesapeake Bay origins, makes for a festive appetizer. Here, it's served hot out of the oven and is extra creamy thanks to the combination of cream cheese and a little mayonnaise. Though crabs are plentiful this time of year - and you can certainly make this with freshly steamed and picked meat if you'd like - canned lump crabmeat makes this dish simple to assemble. Just be careful to leave the clumps of meat as intact as possible when mixing. A sprinkle of cayenne pepper and a generous douse of hot sauce add heat to this flavorful dish.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings (3 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened, for greasing
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 shallot, minced
2 tablespoons minced chives, plus more for garnish
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
1 1/4 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
8 ounces lump crabmeat, drained and picked through for shells
Black pepper
5 butter crackers, finely ground, plus more for serving
Ground cayenne, for serving
Hot sauce, for serving
Sliced toasted baguette, for serving
Celery sticks and carrots, for serving

Steps:

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease an 8-inch cast iron skillet or 1-quart baking dish with butter.
In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, shallot, chives, garlic, lemon juice, Cajun seasoning, mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce and 1/3 cup Parmesan. Stir until well combined. Add the crabmeat and gently stir until just combined, trying to not break up the large lumps. Season with pepper to taste.
Scrape into the prepared skillet and smooth the top. Sprinkle the ground butter crackers and remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan on top.
Bake until golden brown and bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then sprinkle with ground cayenne, hot sauce and chives. Serve with baguette, celery sticks, carrots, additional crackers and more hot sauce.

Tips:

Use a good quality crab meat. Fresh or frozen crab meat will work well, but avoid using canned crab meat as it is often lower quality and has a higher sodium content.
Don't overcook the crab meat. Crab meat is delicate and cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough.
Use a variety of cheeses. A blend of cheeses will give your dip a more complex flavor. Cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese are all good choices.
Add some spice. A little bit of spice can help to balance out the richness of the dip. Cayenne pepper, paprika, or chili powder are all good options.
Serve the dip with a variety of dippers. Crackers, breadsticks, and vegetables are all good choices. You can also serve the dip with fruit, such as grapes or apples.

Conclusion:

Saltaire's Hot Crab Dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion.
