RE: Freezing a Crab Spread Post by badwater (634) | (03/29/2006) Contact I was thinking that you could probably freeze it, but it might not be a creamy as you'd like it to be afterwards. This would be a dish that I'd most likely try to not fix more than what would be eaten, if at all possible, each time, so not to have leftovers. This would be a dish to serve freshly made each time, than to warm up some previously made. Seafood & mayo can make someone sick, quickly, if not kept at the right temps. I'd rather toss it out than to make someone sick with it, even if I'd had a big batch of it still left.

RE: Freezing a Crab Spread Post by nana6x (45) | (03/29/2006) Profile | Contact I would worry more about the sour cream than the mayo. I have frozen sour cream in the past and when defrosted it's nothing but water. So it's possible your dip might be a bit watery after defrosting. RE: Freezing a Crab Spread Post By CHRISTINE IN. (Guest Post) (03/28/2006) How do you freeze cream cheese? I've never had any luck doing it.It always gets mealy. I freeze it in a cheese ball but can you freeze it by itself? Thank you RE: Freezing a Crab Spread Post By sueey (Guest Post) (03/28/2006) I use mayonnaise in my spinach dip and freeze it. Always works well. I microwave it uncovered to use it again -- that seems to take back the extra moisture. RE: Freezing a Crab Spread Post by cjgeo (78) | (03/28/2006) Blog! | Contact Mayonnaise does not freeze well
