ommmnomnomnom i love love love crab dip. it’s like for a secret society of dip lovers. 🙂
Lyuba,
This looks SO GOOD! I love hot dips like this. Thanks for sharing your recipe on Melt in Your Mouth Monday!
I have seafood cravings too. This sounds perfect. My mouth is watering already. Off to make it now with some tinned crab meat from the pantry…
I liked the recipe so much, I could not cook it in the oven, so instead ate it cold…. with the addition of some crunchy vegetable… delish..
Thank you! I bet it was delicious cold and with veggies!!
I’m in love with this Lyuba!!
Can this be served chilled? Can’t wait to try it.
Hi Lyuba
How do you shave parmesan cheese.
Hi Jackie!
I just buy shaved Parmesan cheese in a refrigerated section of my store. it’s usually in a little sealed plastic tub.
Just made this…. Delicious. Thank you.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you 🙂
I’m making this for Christmas Eve and want to know if you have tried cooking this in a crockpot. I’ve found a lot of recipes but yours sounds better than any of the others. Can’t wait to serve this for my family. We love seafood and will be having Oyster stew also.
Thanks
Susan
Hi Susan!
I haven’t tried making this particular dip in the crock pot but I have made dips in a crock pot before. They come out just fine. (This is one of them: https://www.willcookforsmiles.com/2013/01/chicken-condon-blue-dip-super-bowl.html)
I don’t see why this Crab Dip won’t work in a crock pot, I would try it. I’d recommend cooking on low for a couple of hours.
Hope you enjoy it!
Thank you! I could bake it then transfer to small crock pot to keep it warm.
You could do that or cook it right in the crock pot. Either way it should be good 🙂
just made it and it;s very good mmmm yum yum
Thank you, Diana!
Is that a 9 X 13 baking dish or smaller? Thank you
Hi there! 9×13 would be way too big got this dip. This only makes about 3 cups of dip so you can use a smaller dish (Unless you double the recipe). You can use a bread baking dish, a one a half quart dish, a dip baking boat, a smaller cast iron skillet. Just remember if the dip is spread thinner, the baking time will be less.
I hope you enjoy it, Carrie!
Servings?
Hello!
How long can this dip be in the fridge before baking it?
Thank You,
What do you serve with the hot crab dip? I see bread, can you use maybe tortilla chips??
We use Ritz crackers. Pita chips is another option.
I made this on Christmas Day and everyone couldn’t stop eating it (glad I doubled it)! 😉 So delicious I added 1/4 tsp of Old Bay.
Thank you for sharing!!
Can you use imitation crab? Thanks
Hi Gayle,
I believe that it comes down to a personal taste preference. I don’t like the way imitation crab tastes like hot, I only like it cold, so I would not like it in a dip. But, there are plenty of people who like the taste of hot imitation crab. So it’s really up to you 🙂
I would also pat the imitation crab dry with a paper towel so it’s not too moist.
Hi, This dip looks incredible I need a dip recipe that I can make ahead and freeze. Do you think this one would work – cooked first? or frozen uncooked??
Would it be okay to leave the Worcestershire out? Or could it be replaced with soy sauce? I just don’t want to buy a whole bottle to only use so little
Hi Kristyn!
To be honest I don’t use my Worcestershire often and it’s always a little bit so I have a bottle in my fridge that lasts me over a year 🙂 It have quite a specific flavor but you can add a little hot sauce with a little brown sugar for sweetness. The recipe won’t be affected too much if you even omit the Worcestershire all together, so you don’t have to use it if you don’t have it.
I hope you like the dip!
THIS WAS DELICIOUS . ADDED A FEW OTHER THINGS TO IT, DILL AND OLD BAY SEAFOOD SEASONING. THANKS FOR SHARING.
I’m so happy you liked it, Ilona! Thank you for letting me know 🙂
How many servings is this considered. I want to make a large quantity for wedding appetizer.
Hi Donna,
I would estimate this to be 4 servings. I can recommend that you make individual dips in ramekins and just double or triple or make as much as you need. That might be an easy way to serve them 🙂
