My Mom’s Smoky Salmon Spread
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 small (about 6-ounce) can of Sockeye (Red) Salmon, drained and picked over
- 1 8-ounce package of cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon liquid Smoke
- 1 teaspoon horseradish (prepared)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- a good dash or two of lemon pepper, go by taste (substitute a bit of pepper and finely grated lemon rind)
- salt, if desired
Notes:
- Prepared horseradish comes in small jars (and keeps in the fridge nearly forever). It’s not mixed with any substance like horseradish sauce is.
- Liquid smoke is distilled smoke; basically, the flavor is caught in steam, and the particles are left behind. It keeps in the pantry literally for years.
Instructions
Mix all ingredients together to the desired consistency. Serve slightly chilled.
