Bacon Clam Dip
Place bacon in a saute pan and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Drain and crumble bacon.
In a bowl, cream together the farmers cheese and creme fraiche. Add the remaining ingredients, stirring to combine. Add the clam juice for consistency and taste. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Bring to room temperature and adjust seasoning, to taste, before serving.
