Chive Salmon Spread Recipes

SMOKED SALMON DIP

Steps:

• Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, capers, and Tabasco in a food processor fitted with the metal blade; pulse until blended. Add the salmon, dill and chives and pulse, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary, until the salmon is finely chopped. Taste and add salt, if necessary (I usually add about ¼ teaspoon, but it depends on the saltiness of the smoked salmon). Serve as a dip with crackers or bagel chips, or as a spread with bagels.
• Make ahead: This dip can be made a few days ahead of time. However, it gets quite firm in the fridge so let it sit out at room temperature before serving, otherwise it will be hard to scoop.

SALMON, DILL AND CREAM CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients in processor. Blend until just smooth, occasionally scraping down sides of work bowl. Add smoked salmon and dill. Using on/off turns, blend just until smoked salmon is finely chopped. Season spread with salt and pepper. Transfer to small bowl. Serve with baguette rounds.

THE BEST SMOKED SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• Process cream cheese in a food processor to soften completely; add salmon, capers, green onion, dill, cream, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, and lemon juice. Process the mixture again until creamy and smooth.

CHIVE-SALMON SPREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix ingredients just until blended.

SALMON WITH CHIVE MUSTARD BUTTER

Steps:

• In a medium size bowl, combine the mustard, orange zest, 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice, salt, pepper, butter, and 3 tablespoons of chives; mix well to blend.
• Preheat oven to 425.
• In a lightly buttered baking dish, place the fillets skin side down. Brush each fillet with the remaining lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Spread about 2-2 1/2 tablespoons of butter mixture over each fillet to coat evenly.
• Bake for about 12 minutes or until done. To check for doneness, insert a thin-bladed knife into the thickest part of the fillet. The flesh should flake and separate easily and there should be no trace of translucence. The fish should be opaque and flaky. Transfer the fish to a warm platter and brush any remaining mustard chive butter over the fish while it is hot. Sprinkle with the remaining chives to garnish. Cut each fillet in half to serve.
• Cooking Times For Fish: As a rule of thumb, you can expect fish to take about 12 minutes per inch to cook through in a preheated 425 oven.

COLD SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, caper juice, lemon juice, chives, and dill weed until well blended. Cover, and chill for 1 hour. Serve with buttery crackers.

CHIVE AND SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• Place lime juice, horseradish, mustard and cream cheese in the bowl of food processor.
• Process until smooth.
• Add salmon and process until blended thoroughly.
• If your spread is too dense, add a tablespoon or two of milk. (This wasn't necessary when I made it.).
• Transfer to bowl and mix in chives.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
