SMOKED SALMON DIP RECIPE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, measure out the cream cheese, sour cream, lemon zest, dill, horseradish, paprika, and crushed red pepper. *Add 1/2 cup sour cream if you want your dip thick and "spread-like" or 3/4 cup sour cream if you want it more loose like a dip.
• Cover and puree the ingredients. Then scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula.
• Now add the smoked salmon, green onions, and capers to the food processor. Cover and pulse until the salmon is broken into small pieces and well incorporated. You can puree it smooth, or leave it a little chunky.
• Refrigerate at least one hour before serving.

• 4. Add chopped ingredients to softened Cream Cheese along with the ranch dressing, crushed red pepper and cayenne pepper. Mix thoroughly and transfer to serving bowl.
• 5. Use as a cracker dip with assorted crackers, on raw veggies such as celery ribs, or as a bread spread. Refrigerate unused portion. Optional: Garnish the serving dish with fresh dill, fresh chopped jalapenos, fresh chopped scallions/green onions, or cilantro.
• 6. NOTE: * If the spread is not soft enough, add a small amount of the jalapeno pepper brine/juice from the jar and mix thoroughly. ** You can increase or decrease the peppers and spices, depending upon your taste.

• If you can find it, I prefer Norwegian salmon; it's drier and less salty than other smoked salmon.
