Ingredients

The following ingredients have 1 Servings
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (can be light)
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon (lox)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (fresh is best)
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
  • A pinch of salt and pepper
  • Optional garnishes: fresh dill, flying fish roe, lemon zest, capers, finely minced red onion, or tiny slice of lemon

Instruction

  • Add the cream cheese, smoked salmon, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper to your food processor and blend on high until smooth, scraping the sides a few times.
  • Either transfer the mousse to a bowl if you're using it as a dip or put it into a pastry bag fitted with a star tip to pipe it onto cucumber rounds or crackers. (See notes)
  • Top with one or more of the optional garnishes to make it look pretty.
