Smoked Salmon Cheesecake image

A rich savoury cheesecake baked in a springform pan, then refrigerated. Because it is served at room temperature, this is a great make-ahead appetiser, and an ideal dish for occasions when you're serving a large group of people. The preparation and cooking times do not include cooling and refrigeration times. I have adapted this recipe from one I found on a Canadian website.

Time 1h10m

Yield 25 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup round cracker, crushed
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
4 eggs
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
1/2 cup sour cream, low fat is fine
4 ounces smoked salmon, chopped
1/4 cup purple onion, minced
1/4 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup capers, well-drained, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried dill
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the cracker crumbs in the bottom of a lightly greased 9-inch springform pan and set aside.
  • Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer at medium speed until the mixture is fluffy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each egg is added.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix until all the ingredients are well-combined.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared springform pan, and bake at 325ºF for 45 to 50 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and cool it on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
  • Gently run a knife around the edge of the pan and release the sides of the pan. Cool the pie completely, and refrigerate until you are ready to serve it.
  • Serve at room temperature with crackers or crusty bread.

The cheesecake didn't set properly, even though I followed the recipe exactly.

I found the cheesecake to be a bit too sweet. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

The crust was a bit too thick for my taste, but the filling was delicious.

I was a bit skeptical about the smoked salmon in a cheesecake, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors work really well together.
