1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup fresh Maryland blue crab meat, drained well and picked through
1 teaspoon Tessemae’s Slow Roasted Garlic

Tip: Do not stir the dip during or after cooking. Eat this all at once, it does not reheat well! This recipe only uses a cup of crab. It's usually sold by the pound. To use up all that meat, round out your menu with some of these fine items: Chesapeake Crab Deviled Eggs, Crab Cake Sliders.
