SMOKED SALMON SPREAD
A delicious and easy spread that always gets many compliments. Serve it with somewhat bland crackers to taste the smoked salmon. You can add some chopped capers for more flavor, if needed. I usually serve this on a nice plate and put the spread in a mold before serving.

Typically we serve this spread with breadsticks or crackers.

Steps:
- In a food processor, add the smoked salmon along with the mayonnaise and some pepper. Pulse just until the salmon is broken up into slightly smaller pieces. Do not overmix.
- Place the mixture into a bowl and combine with the raw salmon and creme fraiche or sour cream. You may add more or less depending on how creamy you like it.

- Transfer the mixture to a shallow wide bowl and cover with the remaining chives. Serve with crostini.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality salmon. If you're using frozen salmon, thaw it thoroughly before using.
- To make the spread as smooth as possible, use a food processor or blender. If you don't have one, you can mash the salmon and other ingredients together with a fork, but it won't be as smooth.
- If you want a spread with a bit more texture, you can leave some of the salmon chunks intact. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they don't overpower the other ingredients.
- Season the spread to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
- Serve the spread immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later. It will keep for up to 3 days.
