Smoked-Trout Spread image

Light and ultrasavory, this is a spread that's definitely worth making - it requires a minimal amount of work and tastes better than any store-bought version. And if you have any left over, you're in luck - it also tastes wonderful on bagels the next morning.

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb smoked trout fillets, skin discarded and any silver skin scraped off
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup finely chopped shallot
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce such as Tabasco
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup cold water
Accompaniment: whole-grain crackers

Steps:

  • Flake trout and transfer 2 cups to a food processor, then blend with butter, shallot, dill, lemon juice, hot sauce, and pepper until smooth. Reserve remaining trout.
  • With motor running, add water to trout purée in a slow stream and process until water is absorbed, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and fold in reserved trout, then pack mixture into a 4-cup glass or ceramic mold or bowl. Cover surface with wax paper, then tightly cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 6 hours to allow flavors to develop. Bring spread to room temperature before serving. (This will take 1 to 2 hours.)

The texture of this spread was a bit too coarse for my liking. I would have preferred a smoother texture.

This spread is a little too smoky for my taste. I would have preferred a milder flavor.
