Blue crabs are one of the gems of the North Carolina shoreline and chef Joe Kindred of Kindred uses the crab in a deviled crab dip that is chocked full of rich crabmeat, fresh herbs and brightened with a squeeze of lemon juice for a quick and decadent appetizer. Note: You can substitute heavy cream for cultured cream.
