HOT CRAB AND OYSTER DIP
This fairly traditional hot crab dip, rich with mayonnaise, Monterey Jack and plenty of hot sauce, has one major difference: the addition of chopped oysters, which add a saline note to all the creaminess. You can mix the ingredients together a day ahead and store it in the refrigerator. But be sure to bake it just before serving. You want the cheese hot, melted and very gooey.
