Title: Smoked steelhead spread/dip recipies ?
Post by: gaddy on October 07, 2018, 08:46:22 AM: Smoked up some Steel head and looking for recipes for spreads and dips. Would like to hear what you all do. I have to figure out interesting ways to use this fish, smoked or not. Wife is telling me I have enough fish already ? Is that even possible ? Thanks !

(A little bit of milk helps the cream cheese easier to work with) serve on your favorite crackers. It’s also really good to stuff wontons and pan fry for a tasty appetizer

Ajust as needed for taste.
I always have to make two batches, the one my wife likes, blended smoothe with little smoked paprika.
And the one I like is mix all ingredients up, the. Put chunks of smoked fish in and extra smoked paprika and cumin for more heat.

Melt 1 tbs butter in pan and saute 2 diced shallots for about 6 min on med heat. Let cool.
Take about a pound of smoked salmon, remove all pin bones and add to food processor and pulse for 5 seconds. (or separate by hand) Rustic chunked, not minced to hell.
Fold salmon into 2/3 cup creme fraiche, 3 tbs diced chives, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and juice from one lemon.

12 oz smoked salmon/steel head, roughly chopped (I boned and hand shredded, and actually went with a bit more than 16 oz)
8 oz pkg cream cheese, warmed in microwave to soften
1 c sour cream
1 c mayonnaise
1 tsp Tabasco sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced fine
1 small bunch green onions
blend together by hand, not a mixer to keep the fish chunkier. refrigerate.

I also took some aside and mixed a touch of cayenne pepper--will do this again, loved it.
