Clam Dip

Clam dip is so much better when you make it yourself. No preservative after taste, just a really good tasting clam dip and it is very simple to make.

We like the flavor that the hot sauce adds to the dip but you might want to mix all of the ingredients except the hot sauce. Then taste it and decide if you want the hot sauce in there. Let it chill for a few hours before you serve it to your guests.
Be sure to make enough for everyone, don't be shellfish.

Clam Dip Recipe

Ingredients:

1 (6-1/2 ounce) can minced clams
8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce

Preparation:

Drain the clams in a strainer, reserving the liquid.
Put the cream cheese in a medium-size bowl. Add the clams, Worcestershire, lemon juice, garlic powder, black pepper and hot sauce.
Using a hand mixer, blend well (the mixture will be stiff.)
Gradually add clam juice, just a few teaspoons at a time, until the dip has the consistency you want.

Good food ends with good talk.
