In this easy New England clam dip recipe, sour cream and cream cheese pair with tender clams, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and onion to form a tasty classic you won’t be able to resist. Why settle for store-bought when homemade tastes this good?
1 3-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1 7-ounce can minced clams
1/2 pint (1 cup) sour cream
1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons onion juice (see Note)
1-2 tablespoons lemon juice
Drain the clams, reserving some of the liquid, and mash into the softened cream cheese. Add the remaining ingredients and blend well.
If a thinner dip is required, use 1 or 2 tablespoons of the reserved clam liquid to thin the mixture. For a thicker dip, omit the sour cream and use 2 packages of cream cheese instead of just one.
Serve with sturdy potato chips.
