Smoky Salmon Chive Spread Recipes

SMOKY SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• Drain and flake the salmon into a bowl; reserve 1 teaspoon of the salmon liquid. In another bowl, mash the cream cheese, liquid smoke flavor, and the reserved salmon liquid until thoroughly combined; stir in the green onion and horseradish. Gently mix with the flaked salmon, and refrigerate at least 2 hours. If desired, form the spread into a ball, and roll in chopped parsley.

SMOKED SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• In a food processor, add the smoked salmon along with the mayonnaise and some pepper. Pulse just until the salmon is broken up into slightly smaller pieces. Do not overmix.
• Place the mixture into a bowl and combine with the raw salmon and creme fraiche or sour cream. You may add more or less depending on how creamy you like it. Add the shallot, lemon zest and juice and half the chives. Season with pepper; the mixture will likely not need salt due to the smoked salmon.
• Transfer the mixture to a shallow wide bowl and cover with the remaining chives. Serve with crostini.

• Peel the egg and finely slice in an egg-slicer or with a sharp knife.
• Top the slices of bread with a fold of salmon, a slice of egg, and a teaspoonful of salmon roe, if using.
• Decorate with a whole chive, and serve with a wedge of lemon.

FRESH AND SMOKED SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• Place wine, shallots and 1 teaspoon of the salt in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the fresh salmon and poach for 40 seconds. Drain in a sieve and run cold water over the fish just to stop the cooking. Drain well and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 1/2 hours. Discard the poaching liquid.
• Place smoked salmon in a large bowl and stir in the chives. Add the poached salmon and use the side of a wooden spoon to shred the salmon as you mix. Stir in the lemon juice, mayonnaise and pepper. Add sea salt to taste.
