Smoked trout varies in saltiness, so adjust the salt to taste for this wonderfully rich spread. Serve with crisp flatbread, crackers or baguette slices.

Ingredients

4 slices white bread

1/2 cup (125 mL) whipping cream

1/4 cup (60 mL) minced sweet onion

1/4 tsp (1 mL) white pepper

Pinch cayenne pepper

12 oz (375 g) smoked trout, skinned and boned

1/4 cup (60 mL) butter, melted

2 tbsp (30 mL) lemon juice

1/3 cup (75 mL) chopped chives

salt

Preparation

Remove crusts from bread and discard. Cut bread into cubes; place in food processor and drizzle with cream. Let cream soak into bread. Add onion, white pepper and cayenne; process until smooth. Add trout, butter and lemon juice; pulse until smooth, pushing down sides as necessary. Pulse in chives. Season with salt to taste.

Makes about 3 cups (750 mL).

Serving(s): 3 cups (750 mL)
