  1. this is the clam dip I grew up with however we never used the Worcestershire sauce at all. Love it its the best ever. put in refrigerator for a few hours and it will thicken up. I have been making this recipe for sixty years. If you use the Worcestershire try cutting back to maybe one teaspoon.
     
  2. Wish I had read the reviews first. Did not thicken up, and waaaay too much Worcestershire sauce
     
  3. I think that's WAY to much worcestershire sauce. Are you sure u used that much?
     
  4. This stuff is awful. There's a block of cream cheese, a cup of sour cream, 6 1/2 oz of minced clams and 20 minutes I'll never get back....<br/>Do not make this stuff - you cannot taste clams, just Worcestershire Sauce. This should be named Worcestershire Dip - or better yet.... Take this recipe down, I've been scraping my tongue for the last day! BLEHHHHH!!!!!!!
     
  5. This is a great basic clam dip! Dropping the worcestershire to 1 tablespoon was an excellent move. I also added an extra can of clams and a squirt of lemon juice and it all came out really well. Something we will definitely use again. Thanks!
