I played around with a few salmon mouse recipes, but this is different in proportion and seasoning. This is lighter in the proportion of fish to cream cheese than most, at first because I used what leftover salmon, I had. My daughter liked it so much that I made it again for her sleepover birthday party. Having less fish made it mild enough to feed to a bunch of third graders (most of them even liked it). I think you could use canned or smoked salmon too. Of course if you have fresh herbs available, use more than the stated amounts. Ingredients:
4 ounces roasted salmon |
8 ounces cream cheese |
2 tablespoons cognac |
1/2 lemon, zest and juice |
1/4 teaspoon sea salt |
1/2 teaspoon white pepper |
1 teaspoon dried dill |
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes |
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients in the work bowl of a food processor and process until smooth, pausing at least once to scrap down the sides.
2. Serve with crackers, or if you are feeling fancy, pipe into prepared pastry shells.
