Crabmeat And Brie Dip

Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 lb. white crabmeat
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/3 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 rib celery, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • Dash Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 pint heavy whipping cream
  • 4 oz. Brie cheese, rind removed
  • 4 oz. cream cheese
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. white pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the butter over medium heat in a saucepan until it bubbles. Cook onions, peppers, celery and garlic until all the vegetables are soft and just beginning to brown.

  2. 2

    Add the wine and the Worcestershire, bring to a boil, and reduce the liquid by about half. Add the cream, bring to boil, then immediately lower to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Add the cheese in small cubes, stirring until melted. Remove from the heat. If the mixture is very thick, thin it with a little water or (better) crab stock.

  4. 4

    Add the crabmeat, stirring it in so gently that you don't break the lumps. Serve warm with toasted bread.
