Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 lb jumbo lump crabmeat
6 oz cream cheese, room temperature
3 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
2 teaspoons old bay seasoning, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
2 tablespoons fresh chives, thinly sliced, for garnish
carrot stick, for serving
celery stick, for serving
cracker, for serving
crostini, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
  • Melt the butter in a medium pan over medium-low heat. Add the onion, garlic, and salt. Cook for 12-15 minutes, until the onions are caramelized. Remove from heat and transfer to a small bowl to cool completely.
  • Using a fine-mesh strainer, drain crab meat over a bowl.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, hot sauce, Old Bay, and lemon juice. Using an electric mixer, beat together until well combined. With a flexible spatula, fold in the onion mixture, ¾ cup (75 grams) cheddar cheese, and the crab meat.
  • Transfer the dip to a 1-quart baking dish. Top evenly with the remaining cheddar cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the mixture is just beginning to bubble around the edges and the cheese is melted.
  • Heat the broiler to low. Broil dip for 3 minutes, until the whole surface is bubbling and browned. Remove the dip from the oven. Let cool for at least 15 minutes, until set.
  • Garnish the dip with Old Bay and chives. Serve with carrot sticks, celery sticks, crackers, and crostini.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh crab meat. Fresh crab has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen crab, and it will make your dip more luscious. If you can't find fresh crab, you can use frozen crab meat, but be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
  • Don't overcook the crab. Crab meat is very delicate and can easily become tough if it is overcooked. Be sure to cook it just until it is heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in crab dip, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that has a lot of flavor. Cheddar cheese and cream cheese are both popular choices, but you can also use other types of cheese, such as Parmesan cheese, Gruyère cheese, or fontina cheese.
  • Add some heat. If you like your dip with a little bit of a kick, you can add some heat by using spicy peppers, such as jalapeños or cayenne pepper. You can also add some Old Bay seasoning or Creole seasoning to give the dip a more flavorful kick.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite dippers. Crab dip is typically served with crackers, bread, or vegetables. You can also serve it with tortilla chips or pita chips. Whatever you choose, make sure that the dippers are sturdy enough to hold up to the creamy dip.

Conclusion:

Crab dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover crab meat, and it's always a hit with guests. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give crab dip a try. You won't be disappointed.
