- 8 ounces Fresh lump crabmeat
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Remove the rind from the Brie cheese and cut it into small cubes. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3
Pour in the dry white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Step 4
Lower the heat to medium-low. Stir in the heavy cream and heat until warm but not boiling.
Step 5
Add the cream cheese and Brie cheese cubes to the saucepan. Stir continuously until both cheeses melt and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Gently fold in the lump crabmeat, being careful not to break it apart too much. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the crab is heated through.
Step 7
Season the fondue with cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 8
Remove from heat and stir in the finely chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Step 9
Transfer the fondue to a warm fondue pot and serve immediately with dipping items such as crusty bread, steamed vegetables, crackers, or sliced apples.
