GARLIC LOVER'S CLAM DIP

Garlic Lover's Clam Dip image

One of my absolute favorite family recipes is my Granddaddy's clam dip. We had it at most family get-togethers while I was growing up, and he and my Grandma always made sure to make a double batch if they knew I was going to be there (with a special portion just for me to take home). This rich and creamy old fashioned clam dip is a garlic lover's dream.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 package cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (Best Foods or Hellmann's)
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 6 oz. can chopped clams, juice reserved
1-2 cloves garlic, minced (depending on the size of the cloves)
Garlic salt (to taste)

Steps:

Drain clam juice into a measuring cup or small container, and set aside.
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and enough of the clam juice for the dip to reach your desired consistency (it shouldn't be too thick that it will break your chips). Reserve the rest of the clam juice.
Mix in chopped clams and fresh garlic.
Mix in garlic salt (to taste).
The dip can be served immediately, or chilled in the refrigerator to serve later. As the dip will thicken in the fridge, stir in some of the reserved clam juice before serving to bring it back to a nice thickness for dipping.
Serve with Classic Lay's or Ruffles potato chips.

CLAM DIP

Clam Dip image

Here now a taste of New England game days circa the time when televisions had dials instead of remotes and, if you couldn't get fresh clams to steam and chop, a can or two from the supermarket would do just fine. (That's still true!) The recipe comes from Brendan McCarthy, a saltwater fishing guide whose charters range from Brooklyn to Montauk, and south to Florida, the Bahamas and the azure waters off Panama, but whose tastes and kitchen skills were first developed in New England and see an apogee in the simplicity of this recipe. The dip benefits from some curing time in the refrigerator and, for some, a heavy hand on the cayenne.

SPICY CLAM DIP

Spicy Clam Dip image

In this chile-flecked take on a classic 1950s clam dip, the cream cheese-based mixture is spooned into a gratin dish, sprinkled with Parmesan and baked until the topping melts and the dip turns molten and savory. Canned clams are traditional here, providing a gentle saline note and nubby texture without an assertive flavor. If you're starting with cream cheese straight from the fridge, soften it briefly in the microwave before adding it to the bowl; cold cream cheese is a lot harder to mix.

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
2 (6.5-ounce) cans whole clams (1 cup), coarsely chopped (save the clam juice)
1/2 cup packaged, low-moisture grated mozzarella
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
3 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions, plus more for garnish
1 jalapeño, seeded (if desired) and finely chopped
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon fish sauce (optional) or clam juice, plus more to taste
Salt, if needed, and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Potato chips, for serving

Steps:

Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, using a fork or rubber spatula, stir and mash together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.
Add clams, mozzarella, parsley, scallions, jalapeño, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, fish sauce or a teaspoon of reserved clam juice, and lots of black pepper, and stir until well combined. If the mixture seems thick, stir in a little more reserved clam juice.
Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. If you think it needs salt, add it lightly, or try adding a little more fish sauce or more clam juice instead. Dip can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator before baking.
Transfer mixture to shallow 1-quart ceramic baking dish or gratin dish. Sprinkle Parmesan on top and bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with sliced scallions, and serve hot or warm with potato chips.
