Maryland's Chesapeake Bay is known for crabs, and they're a big favorite of ours. When fresh crabmeat is available, we'll use it in this dip, but canned works just as well. This appetizer is nice for any holiday or gathering.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh crab meat, spinach, and vegetables will make a big difference in the taste of the dip.
  • Don't overcook the crab meat. Crab meat is delicate and can easily become tough if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is a key ingredient in this dip, so it is important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
  • Add some heat. If you like a little bit of heat, you can add some cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the dip. This will give it a nice kick.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite dippers. Crackers, bread, and vegetables are all good options for dipping in this crab spinach dip.

Conclusion:

Warm crab spinach dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with a combination of crab meat, spinach, cheese, and seasonings, and it is baked until bubbly and hot.
