Makes 2 dozen
Great atop baguette slices or pretty crackers and broiled. If you have any
leftovers (we'll be surprised), fill up a roll for an impromptu crab
sandwich.
1 clove garlic
1/4 small onion
6 ounces cream cheese
1/8 cup heavy cream
2 TB canola mayonnaise
2 TB sour cream
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
cayenne pepper to taste
1/2 lb fresh crabmeat
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
salt and white pepper to taste
2 dozen slices baguette, on the bias
With the food processor running, put garlic and onion through the feed tube
until minced. Add cream cheese and heavy cream and process until smooth.
Ditto with the mayo, sour cream, Worcestershire, and cayenne.
Sort through crabmeat by hand to remove any shell bits. Sprinkle the crab
with the lemon juice, then stir it into the cream cheese mixture by had.
Season to taste and refrigerate for at least 11/2 hours.
To serve, spoon the crab onto the bread. Pop in the broiler for a couple of
minutes until lightly browned.
