Ready In: 1 hr 10 mins
Serves: 6-8
Yields: 2 Cups
Ingredients
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1⁄2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
- 1 dash pepper
- 1 dash paprika
- 8 ounces minced clams, drained (but reserve liquid)
- 1⁄4 cup clam broth (reserved from the can)
Directions
- Peel and halve garlic clove, and rub on interior wall of serving bowl. (This seems like an unimportant step -- but my Mom used to swear that this one step made all the difference -- We don't question Jolean. You shouldn't either -- ). Mince the rest of the garlic clove to add to the other ingredients.
- Leave cream cheese in bowl until it has reached room temperature. (Don't nuke it -- let it rest and thaw on it's own --) Then cream with a fork until smooth.
- Gradually add remaining ingredients (except minced clams), blending well. (Use a hand mixer to get the lumps out, if any.).
- Fold in minced clams last. Blend well --.
- Chill for 1 hour, sprinkle paprika on top and serve with rippled potato chips.
- YUM!
