Ingredients:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 8 oz smoked salmon, finely diced
  • 1 tbsp capers, drained and roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and lemon juice. Stir vigorously with a spatula until the mixture is velvety and smooth with no visible lumps.
  2. Gently fold in the diced smoked salmon using a lifting motion to ensure the salmon stays in small, distinct flakes. Stop as soon as the fish is evenly distributed.
  3. Add the chopped capers, dill, chives, and black pepper. Fold one last time until the herbs are streaked throughout the dip.
