Rich, creamy, and savory, with a distinct crab flavor.
The primary flavor profile revolves around the sweet and delicate taste of Chesapeake Bay blue crab meat, balanced by a creamy base typically consisting of cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Savory notes are introduced through Old Bay seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, and often, a touch of garlic and/or onion. A sprinkle of cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese on top adds a melted, bubbly layer of sharpness and richness. The toasted baguettes and tortilla chips provide a textural contrast and vehicle for scooping up the dip, while the carrots and celery (GF option) offer a fresh, crisp alternative.
