Grown up Lox with Dilled Cream Cheese Dip
- 2 packages Smoked Salmon
- 1/4 cups Red Onion, Finely Chopped
- 1/4 cups Fresh Chopped Dill
- 13 cups Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 Tablespoon Capers- With Brine
- 3 Tablespoons Grapeseed Oil
- 1- 1/2 cup Spring Greens
- 1 package Cream Cheese
- 13 cups Dill, Finely Chopped
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- Take the package of salmon and thinly slice it.
- Peel the red onion, and grab a large handful of dill and finely chop.
- Next, using your microplane finely grate the garlic clove.
- Add all of the ingredients to a bowl.
- Take the juice of a lemon and squeeze into the mixture.
- With your microplane, zest a quarter of the lemon and combine with the ingredients.
- Add two tablespoons of grapeseed oil and mix with the rest of the ingredients.
- I like to use grapeseed oil because I find that the taste of olive oil is too strong for this dish, you already have so many flavors going on, that it would only compete.
- Grapeseed oil is really mild, so its perfect.
- If you dont have grapeseed oil, or cant bring yourself to pay 8 bucks for a bottle, then you can use canola oil.
- The next thing you do is add the salmon to this mixture and let it marinade while you make the spread.
- For the spread: Take an 8 oz.
- package of cream cheese and a handful of dill and run through the food processor.
- Add the tbsp.
- of lemon juice and salt and mix well until the dill is finely chopped and the mixture is nice and creamy.
- Serve on a platter with the salmon and greens and flatbread.
- Chilled Prosecco goes REALLY well with this!
- I recommend Martini and Rossi.
