Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with paprika, fresh dill, and lemon wedges. Serve with Wheat Thins.
One of our favorite hors-d’oeuvres at our Maine summer house is a simple but delicious crab dip, which we serve with Wheat Things Big crackers. It’s also delicious on a bed of greens as a salad, or stuffed into buns as crab rolls.
