Avocado And Smoked Salmon Soup Recipes

AVOCADO AND SMOKED SALMON MOUSSE

Steps:

• Line a 4-cup round mold with plastic wrap.
• Lay about 1/3 of the salmon over the plastic wrap, overlapping each slice slightly and hanging the ends over the edge, to cover the mold.
• Chop the remaining salmon into 1/2-inch pieces and set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese and sour cream until creamy and well combined.
• Add the hot pepper sauce and salt and stir well. In a small saucepan, heat the lemon juice over very low heat.
• Pour into a 1/2-cup ramekin and sprinkle with the gelatin, stirring until the gelatin is dissolved.
• Remove from the heat and stir into the cream cheese mixture.
• Fold in the chopped smoked salmon and scallions.
• Spoon 1/3 of the mousse into the mold, top with a layer of avocado slices, then gently spread with 1/2 the salmon roe.
• Spread 1/3 of the mousse on top of the roe, and top with the remaining avocado slices and roe.
• Spread the remaining mousse over the top and fold the overhanging salmon strips over to completely enclose the mousse.
• Cover with the plastic wrap and chill until firm, about 3 hours.
• To unmold, place the mold in a bowl of warm water for 10 seconds.
• Unwrap the plastic from the bottom of the mold and invert the mold onto a serving plate.
• Gently shake to release the mold and unwrap completely.
• Serve with toasted croutons or crackers or seasoned party pitas, for dipping.

SMOKED SALMON AND AVOCADO WRAPS

Steps:

• Mix together the avocado, dill, mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice until all combined.
• Lay down 1 piece of mountain bread and smear with the avocado mixture, then top with the smoked salmon and shredded carrot and top off with the lettuce and then roll up the mountain bread nice and tight, wrap firmly with cling wrap and place in the fridge (overnight is great), cut into slices and serve.

AVOCADO AND SMOKED SALMON SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and pit the avocados and in a blender blend them with the lemon juice, the sour cream, 3 cups of the broth, and the Tabasco until the mixture is smooth, adding enough of the remaining 1/2 cup broth to thin the mixture to the desired consistency. Transfer the soup to a bowl, season it with salt and pepper, and chill it, its surface covered with plastic wrap, for 1 hour, or until it is cold. (The soup will discolor if kept for more than 6 hours.) Stir half the salmon, chopped, into the soup, divide the soup among chilled bowls, and garnish it with the remaining salmon, cut into strips.
