Marilyn’s Sumptuous Seafood Dip
Description
Marilyn is the woman behind the Cocktail Crisps and a whole slew of fabulous appetizers that I still need to make and post. I don’t know where this recipe is from, but it’s a favorite of mine! – enjoy!
Ingredients
1 package (250 g) cream cheese, softened
1, can (120 g) crab meat, drained well and patted dry
1/2 lb/~250 g cooked shrimp, patted dry and chopped – save a couple whole shrimp for garnish
1 c. Swiss cheese, grated AND 1/2 c. mayonnaise
1 T. EACH lemon juice AND chopped fresh dill – save a sprig for garnish
2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
4 dashes EACH Tabasco sauce AND Worcestershire sauce
crackers, sliced baguette or vegetables for serving
Instructions
Put the cream cheese in a large bowl and beat until smooth and fluffy – I use my electric mixer for this. Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix well then scrape into a serving bowl and garnish as desired. I’ve only ever had this chilled with crackers or sliced baguette but apparently it’s also very tasty served hot – just make sure you put it into a heatproof dish and cover it with foil before heating it for about 20 minutes in a 375 oven.
