Scale
Main Ingredients
- 12 oz whipped cream cheese
- 1/4 cup yogurt
- 5 oz smoked salmon (skin removed)
- 2 tbsp fresh dill (plus a few sprigs for garnish)
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Salmon: Carefully check the smoked salmon for any bones and remove them to ensure a smooth and enjoyable dip.
- Blend Ingredients: Add the whipped cream cheese, yogurt, boneless smoked salmon, fresh dill, and salt into a food processor. Blend thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, garnish with a few sprigs of fresh dill, and serve chilled with your choice of veggies or crackers.
Notes
- Use plain Greek yogurt for a thicker consistency and added protein.
- If you prefer a tangier dip, substitute the yogurt with sour cream.
- Adjust the salt carefully since smoked salmon can be salty on its own.
- For a dairy-free version, consider substituting cream cheese and yogurt with vegan alternatives.
- The dip is best served chilled and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
