When To Serve Your Crab Dip

I always like to make this for a crowd. You can serve it for tailgating, a summer party or as an appetizer with wine and crackers. You can pair it with pretzel crackers, Ritz Crackers or anything that you prefer for dipping. A trick that I like to do is put the bowl in the freezer while preparing the dip. That way it’s extra cold when you serve the dip. If you’re serving it at an outdoor gathering, be sure to serve it over ice!
