Paula Deen Ingredients:
1 lb crabmeat, picked over to remove bits of shell |
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1/4 cup sour cream |
4 scallions, finely chopped (white and light green parts) |
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
1 teaspoon hot sauce, to taste |
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder |
tortilla chips or cracker, for dipping |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°.
2. In a bowl, stir together the crabmeat, Cheddar, cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped scallions, garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and mustard powder.
3. Scrape the mixture into a wide baking dish; one that is pretty enough for serving.
4. Bake until the dip is golden and bubbling, 45-55 minutes.
5. Chop the dark green scallion tops and sprinkle over the dip to add a little color.
6. Serve hot with a bowl of tortilla chips or crackers to use as dippers.
