Smoked Salmon Mousse
This 10-minute recipe for Smoked Salmon Mousse can be turned into an elegant appetizer when piped onto slices of cucumbers, as I've done here. It's also delicious as a dip for any crunchy veggies or crackers.
Amp up the presentation by topping individual servings with a sprig of fresh dill or a couple of capers. For this recipe, I use a Ready-to-Eat pouch of Wild Salmon from SeaBear Smokehouse, but you can use whatever smoked salmon you like.

- Cut cream cheese into large chunks and add it to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the S-blade. Secure the lid and run on low for about 1 minute, until creamy.
- Scrape down the sides and add the smoked salmon, lemon juice, capers, fresh dill, scallion, salt, pepper and Tabasco Sauce, if using. Secure the lid and run on low for another 1 to 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides, as needed. Once the mousse is fluffy and well-combined, transfer it to a bowl or a piping bag fitted with a star tip.
- Refrigerate the mousse for at least an hour, up to overnight, to let it firm up a bit.
- Serve with crackers and cut veggies, or pipe it onto crackers or sliced cucumbers. Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill or a couple of capers.
