Salmon 'Tartare' Spread Recipe


"Start everyone with a glass of bubbly and this Salmon 'Tartare' Spread served on kettle-style potato chips, sesame crackers or toasts."
Original recipe yield: 1 1/3 cups.
Servings:
10

Salmon 'Tartare' Spread INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/4 cup capers, packed in brine and drained
  • 8 ounces good-quality smoked salmon
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup finely diced red onion

Salmon 'Tartare' Spread DIRECTIONS:

  1. Pulse capers, until coarsely chopped, in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add salmon, dill, oil and lemon zest; pulse until salmon is finely chopped and well-mixed. Stir in red onion. Serve with kettle-style potato chips, sesame crackers or toasts. If you assemble the hors d'oeuvres (rather than letting guests make their own), top each tartare-covered toast or chip with a thin slice of lemon, rind and all.
