Instructions:

  1. Heat the Oil: Begin by heating the olive oil in the top half of a double boiler over medium heat.

  2. Sauté Onions and Garlic: Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the heated oil. Sauté until they become soft and translucent, releasing their aromatic flavors.

  3. Whisk in Cream: Once the onions and garlic are soft, whisk in the heavy cream. Allow the mixture to heat through, ensuring it’s well combined.

  4. Incorporate Brie: Gradually add the cubed Brie cheese to the mixture, stirring constantly until the cheese is fully melted and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

  5. Add Spinach and Mustard: Fold in the chopped fresh spinach and Dijon mustard, incorporating them evenly into the creamy mixture.

  6. Simmer: Let the dip simmer gently for about 15 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together beautifully. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

  7. Incorporate Crab Meat: Once the dip is fragrant and well blended, gently fold in the lump crab meat, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

  8. Season with Dill: Sprinkle the dried dill weed over the dip, giving it a final burst of flavor and freshness.

  9. Serve Warm: Transfer the warm crab and spinach dip to a serving dish and serve immediately, accompanied by your favorite dippers like crusty bread, crackers, or fresh veggies.
