Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
Be sure to finely chop the onion, celery, and bell pepper so that they blend well with the other ingredients.
Use a good quality mayonnaise. A homemade mayonnaise will give the dip a richer flavor than a store-bought mayonnaise.
If you don't have any Old Bay seasoning, you can substitute a mixture of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper.
Be careful not to overcook the crab meat. Crab meat should be cooked just until it is opaque and tender, otherwise it will become tough.
Serve the dip warm with crackers, bread, or vegetables.
