Notes
- When stirring the crab meat into the dip, make sure to stir gently to keep the pieces of the meat as intact as you can.
- Don't let the little bit of hot sauce scare you if you aren't someone who likes heat. The dip is not spicy at all. It just adds a mild, slight peppery background.
- You want fresh lemon juice for this and not bottled. The difference in flavor is noticeable in this dip.
