Fancy Clam Dip

This classic white clam dip, filled with cream cheese; crème fraîche; and, of course, canned clams, is salty, cheesy, and craveable. Some generous splashes of hot sauce and plenty of fresh dill add brightness and cut through the rich, indulgent dip.

Ingredient

  • 2 (6 1/2-ounce) cans minced clams (such as Bar Harbor)
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup crème fraîche
  • 1 small shallot, grated (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Hot sauce
  • Chopped fresh dill
  • Potato chips
Direction

Drain clams, reserving clam liquor. Stir together clams and cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth. Gently stir in crème fraîche, shallot, lemon zest, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Stir in 1 teaspoon (or to taste) reserved clam liquor. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours. Garnish with hot sauce and fresh dill; serve with potato chips.
