Salmon Dip
Salmon Dip
I came across this recipe on Instagram and it called for a can of smoked salmon and the use of a food processor. I had a lot of regular canned salmon on hand so I went with that, and used an electric mixer in place of a food processor. The result was an excellent tasting dip! Highly recommended if you like canned salmon and dips. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Equipment
- Electric Mixer
Ingredients
- 226 grams cream cheese, softened, (8 oz)
- ¼ cup sour cream, Shortcut
- ¼ cup mayo
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 can salmon, drained, (15 oz / 425 g), Shortcut
- 2 teaspoons dried dill weed
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- assorted crackers, for serving
Instructions
- To a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, sour cream, mayo, and lemon juice. (I microwaved the cream cheese first for 10-15 seconds and it is very softened, then added the other ingredients.)
- Mix with an electric mixer until well mixed.
- Add the drained salmon, dill, chives, and capers. (I took the photo before adding the chives.)
- Mix with the mixer again to blend the salmon into the cream cheese mixture.
- Spoon mixture into a serving bowl and serve with assorted crackers.
