Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 8 oz cold-smoked salmon (lox)
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tbsp drained capers
  • 1/2 tsp prepared horseradish (optional)
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Beat the cream cheese and sour cream in a medium bowl until smooth, about 1 minute.
  2. Fold in the smoked salmon, lemon juice, dill, capers, black pepper, and horseradish if using. Mix gently to keep the salmon in pieces.
  3. Taste and adjust lemon or pepper. Spoon into a bowl, top with extra capers and dill, and serve right away.

Notes

This spread thickens as it chills. If you make it ahead, let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving so it spreads easily.
