Easy Smoked Salmon Dip (Ready in 10 Minutes!)

If you’ve always wanted to take that trip to Seattle for the seafood but it’s just not in your budget this year, make this easy smoked salmon dip instead! It may not come with a view of the Space Needle, but it does come with enough salmon flavor to make you think you’re in the Pacific Northwest, even if only for a second. This easy smoked salmon dip is creamy, smoky, fresh, and comes together super quickly! We love using it as a spread on top of crostini or as a dip with crackers.

Ingredients

8 ounces - cream cheese
3 tablespoons - sour cream
6 ounces - hot smoked salmon
1 tbsp - fresh dill
1 tbsp - fresh parsley
1 tbsp - capers
1 - lemon
1 tsp - Worcestershire
Salt & pepper
baguette
Crackers

Instructions

Using a whisk, a handheld electric beater, or a stand mixer, whip the cream cheese and the sour cream together.
Mix in the herbs, the capers, the worcestershire sauce, and the lemon zest until they’re fully combined with the cream cheese and sour cream.
Add the smoked salmon and mix it in. You can do this with a spoon if you want larger pieces of the salmon, or you can use a whisk, beater, or stand mixer if you want the salmon to be more integrated into the dip (this is our preferred method). Tip (optional): leave about 1 tablespoon of salmon out of the mixture to garnish on top.
Garnish the dip with extra smoked salmon (if you left some out), fresh dill, and lemon zest, if desired. Spread the easy smoked salmon dip onto slices of toasted baguette or crackers.
