#6 - Crab Dip

I decided to make crab dip for a superbowl party I went to.  I figured instead of making my usual mexican dip I'd try a new recipe.  I guess it turned out alright... people ate it at the party and Joe seems to like it and is going to finish it, but I haven't actually tried more than a tiny bite.  Something about the smell just makes me feel sick and I don't want to eat it at all!  It's main flavor is actually dill, which I don't normally dislike, so I guess it's just the crab that's really turning me off.  Oh well, recipe #6 - check!

Crab Dip (from the "New Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook" again)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 six-ounce can of cooked crabmeat, drained and flaked
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
1 teaspoon dried dill
1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel
1 teaspoon lemon juice
ground red pepper to taste
salt and black pepper to taste
- Combine ingredients, cover, refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours before serving with crackers.

New skills: grating lemon peel
New ingredients: ground red pepper, dried dill
