Maryland Crab Fondue

This is a great twist on Maryland Crab Dip! It’s super easy to whip up and who doesn’t love a fondue!!

ingredients

1 lb. Maryland crab meat
8 oz. cream cheese
8 oz. Gruyere cheese - grated
1/2 cup milk
1/4 tsp. lemon pepper seasoning
dash of old bay - just because
1/4 cup dry sherry - alter this to taste
Salt and Pepper to taste
Loaf of French bread – cut into cubes
Broccoli florets – blanched
Asparagus spears – blanched

directions

Remove all cartilage from crab meat. Combine cheeses, milk, seasonings & sherry in fondue pot, set on low; stir until blended & smooth. Add crab meat, stirring occasionally, until hot & bubbly, 5-10 minutes. Spear cubes of bread on fondue fork & swirl in a figure eight motion to coat. (If fondue thickens while standing, stir in a little additional milk or sherry.) If you do not have a fondue pot, mixture may be made in a double boiler & served from that or transfer to a chafing dish.
