Smoked Salmon Tartare

Prep Time:

Serves

Ingredients

  • 8 oz / 226 g smoked salmon, cut into 1/4” pieces
  • 3 tbsp capers, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp finely grated lemon zest
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1/3 cup crème fraîche*
  • Splash of lemon juice

 

* Sour cream can be used if you can’t find crème fraîche, or you blew your budget on the smoked salmon. Ideally use 14% sour cream, 5% if you absolutely insist on lower fat, but try your best to avoid no-fat sour cream.

Directions

I love a party dish that requires very little investment in both time and money but feels very expensive. I found this gem of a recipe on Epicurious years ago and brought this a number of holiday and New Year’s parties – to the delight of all!

  1. Toss smoked salmon, capers, lemon zest, paprika and dill in a bowl. Fold in crème fraîche gently, then give a light squeeze of lemon.
  2. Scoop into your finest serving vessel and serve with a bowl of well salted, sturdy potato chips – think kettle chips! Or serve atop mini potato latkes with a fresh sprig of dill as a very fancy hors d’oeuvres.
