Smoked Salmon Celery And Carmelized Onion Stuffed Celery Stalks Recipes

SMOKED SALMON AND CARAMELIZED ONION STUFFED CELERY STALKS

Steps:

• In a saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion slices; reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes. Add sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
• In a medium bowl combine cream cheese and horseradish; divide mixture between 2 bowls. Coarsely chop one-quarter of the salmon, add to half the cheese mixture; add dill, and mix. Cut remaining salmon into thin slivers; set aside. Fill half the celery with mixture. Garnish each with a sliver of salmon and a dill tip or two. Fill remaining celery with remaining cheese mixture, garnish with reserved caramelized onions, and serve.

STUFFED CELERY STALKS

Steps:

• To make the onion spread: Drizzle the vegetable oil into a wide pan over high heat. Once hot, add the onion rings and saute for about 2 to 3 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to low, and cook slowly for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the rings are nice, soft and a medium-golden brown color, pull them off the heat.
• Season with the kosher salt, black pepper and smoked paprika.
• Put the softened and malleable cream cheese into a bowl. Incorporate the caramelized onions and stir with a spatula to combine. The heat of the onions will help melt the cheese.
• The leftovers can be saved, refrigerated, in an airtight container for about a week and used on bread, burgers, or almost anything.
• To make the blue cheese spread: Place the softened cream cheese into a bowl with the crumbled blue cheese. Using a spatula, mix the cheeses together until they develop a nice and smooth consistency, adding a drizzle of heavy cream if the mixture is too stiff.
• Season the mixture with the Worcestershire, chives, salt and black pepper.
• To make the stuffed celery: Place both spreads into 2 separate heavy plastic bags. Cut off the tip of 1 corner from each bag and use them to pipe the spreads onto the celery stalks.
