- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese, mayonaise, Parmesan cheese, chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice (or wine), horseradish, and a small amount of pepper to taste. Fold in artichoke and crabmeat. Scrape mixture into a baking dish. Sprinkle bread crumbs over top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Turn oven to 400 degrees and bake another five minutes. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor. Fresh crab meat is more tender and flavorful than frozen crab meat, and it will give your dip a more authentic taste.
- Don't overcook the crab meat. Crab meat is delicate, so it only needs to be cooked for a few minutes. Overcooking will make it tough and chewy.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dip, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that will melt well and provide a rich flavor.
- Season the dip to taste. This dip is typically served with crackers or bread, so you may want to season it a little more heavily than you would if you were serving it as a main course.
- Serve the dip warm. This dip is best served warm, so it's important to reheat it if it's been refrigerated before serving.

Warm crab dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion if you are a seafood lover.
