2 tsp worcestershire sauce

1/2 c shredded white cheddar cheese
Sprinkle of old bay seasoning or paprika

  • 2. In a separate bowl, pick through the crab meat, looking for and removing any shell pieces.
  • 3. Add the crab to the mixing bowl, along with the shredded white cheddar cheese. Fold GENTLY to incorporate the crab & cheese with the other ingredients. (If you're using lump crab meat, you'll want to keep the lumps!)
  • 4. Spray a baking dish with cooking spray. GENTLY pour the mixed ingredients into the baking dish. Now, if you like Old Bay seasoning, sprinkle it over the top. (If you REALLY like Old Bay, you might even stir some in first.) If you're not an Old Bay fan, you can sprinkle on some paprika, if you want. Just for "pretty."

  • 6. Serve hot with savory crackers, flatbread pieces, or toasted bread points.
