What is King Crab?
In case you're not familiar, king crab is a type of crab that's known for its large size and delicious meat. King crabs are typically found in the waters of Alaska and the surrounding areas, and they can weigh up to 10 pounds each! The meat is sweet and delicate, with a slightly salty taste that pairs perfectly with creamy dips like this one.
What is Queso Crema?
If you're not familiar with queso crema, it's basically a creamy, spreadable cheese that's commonly used in Mexican cuisine. It's similar in texture to cream cheese, but with a slightly tangier flavor.
