Tastes–
Maralyn and I both delight in trying new tastes. Yet sometimes we enjoy the tried and true. One example is the green bean casserole with the French fried onions on top that we sometimes prepare for Thanksgiving.
This clam dip first appeared on the Kraft Music Hall of Fame during the 1950s. Within a day, New York City was sold out of canned clams. I still enjoy making this old time favorite.
