DAD'S CLAM DIP



Dad's Clam Dip image

This was my father's specialty while I was growing up. He made it for holidays and company. Slightly different from the other clam dips I've seen on Zaar.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 Block Neufchatel Cream Cheese (8 ounces)
1 Can Minced Clams (Chopped is too big)
2 Tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1½ Tbsp Dried Minced Onion
½ Tsp Garlic Powder

Steps:

  • Dump room temperature cream/neufchatel cheese into bowl.
  • Open can of clams, pour juice into glass.
  • Dump clams into cream/neufchatel cheese.
  • Add worcestershire sauce, onion, and garlic to taste (something close to the proportions above).
  • Add about half of the clam juice, or a little more until you can stir the dip into a consistency that scoops well onto a chip in a way that doesn't break the chip, but doesn't turn into a liquid that won't stay on the chip.
  • Put dip into refrigerator (especially if you got it too watery). You can store overnight-I usually make it the night before to let the flavors mix and let the dip set.
  • Serve with potato chips!
