Best 6 Smoked Salmon Rillettes With Rye Toasts Recipes

SMOKED SALMON RILLETTES

Steps:

• Pulse shallots, crème fraîche, and butter in a food processor until smooth. Add salmon and process until salmon is coarsely chopped and incorporated, about 15 seconds. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, kosher salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup chives. Adjust seasonings to taste.
• Spread rillettes onto crackers, then top with chives and sea salt.
• Do ahead
• Rillettes can be made 3 days ahead; cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly on the surface, and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.

ROASTED SALMON RYE TOASTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the salmon fillet on a piece of foil. Season, then wrap in the foil and roast for 8 mins until just flaking. Leave to cool.
• To make the pickled cucumber, cut the cucumber piece in half lengthways. Scrape out the core and discard. Cut in half again, then cut into quarter moons at an angle. Put in a bowl with the coriander, vinegar and a pinch of sugar and salt. Mix well and leave to pickle for at least 15 mins.
• To make the apple & chilli salsa, combine all the ingredients, mix well and season to taste.
• Toast the bread and cut each slice into eight squares. Spread with the crème fraîche and flake the salmon between the toasts. Top half with the pickled cucumber and half with the salsa.

RYE TOASTS WITH SMOKED SALMON, CUCUMBER, AND RED ONION

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Toast bread slices in oven on a baking sheet, turning once, until golden, about 10 minutes.
• Spread 2 teaspoons cream cheese on each toast. Divide cucumber, salmon, onions, and capers among toasts; season with pepper. Squeeze lemon juice on top.

SMOKED SALMON RILLETTES ON TORTILLA WAFERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Using 2-inch-diameter cookie cutter, cut out 8 rounds from each tortilla. Place rounds on heavy large baking sheet. Brush both sides of tortilla rounds with olive oil. Bake until rounds are golden and crisp, about 9 minutes. Set tortilla wafers aside.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons water over heavy rimmed baking sheet. Place salmon fillet, skin side down, on baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until salmon is opaque in center, about 15 minutes. Cool completely. Remove skin from salmon. Coarsely flake salmon into large bowl.
• Combine flaked salmon, smoked salmon, crème fraîche, and butter in food processor. Using on/off turns, blend ingredients just until coarse paste forms (do not overprocess).
• Transfer salmon mixture to medium bowl. Stir in tarragon, lemon juice, and lemon peel. Season rillettes to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Store wafers airtight at room temperature. Keep rillettes refrigerated.)
• Spread rillettes over tortilla wafers. Arrange wafers on platter. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

SMOKED AND FRESH SALMON RILLETTES

Steps:

• Note: All ingredients must be at room temperature. Chilling time of 6 hours not included in cook time.
• Brush olive oil over fresh salmon; wrap in aluminum foil and cook in oven preheated to 400 degreesF (200 degreesC) for 8 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• Break up cooked salmon by hand into smaller chunks of about 1/2 inch (12 mm). Cut smoked salmon into similar-size pieces.
• Chop shallots, capers and chives and hand mix in a stainless steel bowl with cooked salmon, smoked salmon, yogurt, lime juice and clarified butter.
• Mix in Tabasco, then place mixture in a 4-cup (1-L) terrine mould and refrigerate, covered, 6 hours.
• Serve sliced 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick with Pommeroy Mustard Mayonnaise (3 parts mayonnaise to 1 part grainy mustard).

FRESH & SMOKED SALMON RILLETTES

Steps:

• Put the vermouth, onion, lemon juice, parsley stalks and peppercorns in a saucepan with 150ml water and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 mins. Turn the heat down to a very gentle simmer, add the salmon fillet and poach for 4 mins. Let the salmon sit and cool in the liquid.
• Lift the salmon out of its poaching liquid, remove the skin and flake the flesh roughly. Mix the flesh with the smoked salmon, a good squeeze of lemon, the butter, chervil and some pepper. Tip into a bowl, cover and put in the fridge (be sure to bring it back to room temperature to serve).
• Mix the crème fraîche with the herbs, capers, shallot, oil and lemon juice to taste. Serve the rillettes with leaves of chicory - its bitterness is very good against the richness of the salmon - the caper crème fraîche and some rye bread, if you like.
