Smoked Salmon DIp

Smoked Salmon and Chives Dip

  • Author: Roger

Description

This savory dip will be the star of your next party. Double the recipe if you are planning a crowd of more than eight.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon, finely minced
  • Salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl add cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice, chives, Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined.
  2. Add salmon and mix on medium high speed until well mixed and the dip begins to take on a slight pink tint, about 30-45 seconds. Salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh chives and serve with cracker or vegetables.

Notes

  • If you use hot-smoked salmon (which I prefer over the lox style for this dip) it could vary a lot in saltiness. Keep this in mind when seasoning your dish.
  • This is fantastic right out of the mixing bowl, but if you want to turn this up to eleven, refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to develop.
