Provided by á-5531

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 TB. HORSERADISH DIP SEASONING (Penzeys)
2 TB. water
8 oz. cream cheese (regular or low-fat) at room temperature
1/3 Cup mayonnaise
2 TB. prepared chili sauce (at most grocery stores by the catsup), cocktail sauce works well, too
1 4-oz. can crab meat, drained
1 tsp. fresh lemon juice, optional

Steps:

Mix HORSERADISH DIP with the water and let stand for 5 minutes. Mix the cream cheese and mayonnaise until well blended. Add the chili sauce and mix, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Add the rehydrated HORSERADISH DIP and mix. Fold in the drained crab meat. The dip mixture has lemon in it but we just love a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Place the dip in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips:

To select fresh crab meat, look for pieces that are firm and opaque, with a briny smell. Avoid any crab meat that is discolored or has a slimy texture.
If you're using frozen crab meat, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Use a combination of mayonnaise and sour cream to create a creamy, flavorful base for the dip. You can also add a bit of Dijon mustard for a tangy kick.
Finely chop the crab meat before adding it to the dip. This will help to distribute the crab flavor evenly throughout the dip.
Add grated horseradish to taste. Start with a small amount and add more until you reach the desired level of heat.
Garnish the dip with chopped fresh chives or parsley before serving. This will add a touch of color and freshness.
Serve the dip with crackers, chips, or vegetables for dipping.

Conclusion:

Crab and horseradish dip is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste preferences. Serve it with your favorite dippers and enjoy!
