If You're Going to Make a Dip

Then do it right. No off-the-shelf stuff for us.

Smoked Salmon Dip

Ingredients
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish, drained
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 pound (4 ounces) smoked salmon, minced




I salt packed two Alaskan wild caught filets with sugar and cracked peppers for 20 hours.


I watched some football.


Then, I smoked the salmon at 160 degrees for almost four hours in oak and hickory.


The smoke rendered two flavor infused filets.


The finished dip....perfection.
