Hot and creamy crab dip

What do you need:

• 1/2 kilogram of giant crab, without shell
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1 cup cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Using a hand mixer, mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream in a bowl. Add the garlic, cheeses, onion, lemon juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper to the bowl and stir until all ingredients are well combined. Fold the crab. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and cook in a preheated oven (325F) until bubbly and golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with fresh vegetable slices, crackers, or French fries.

Best Garlic Butter Crab Legs

What do you need:

• 1/2 kilogram king crab legs, cut in half to expose meat
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
• 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
• lemon slices

In a bowl, combine the garlic, melted butter, parsley, and lemon juice. Place crab legs on baking sheet and drizzle with butter mixture. Reserve a little of the mixture for dipping. Bake crab legs in a preheated oven (375F) until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve with sauce and lemon wedges; it is best to squeeze the lemon juice over the crab before consuming it.

Delicious crispy baked crab sticks

What do you need:

• 12 spring roll wrappers
• 1/2 cup cream cheese
• 3 tablespoons minced crab meat
• 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
• sweet and sour sauce
• pinch of salt

Combine cream cheese, crab meat, sugar, and sweet and sour sauce in a bowl. Season with salt and stir until ingredients are well combined. Spoon about a teaspoon of the mixture into each spring roll wrapper and wrap. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil, then place the crab sticks on the sheet. Bake in a preheated oven (375F) for about 12 minutes or until crisp (turning once halfway through).
