Salmon Dip

I'mPat's Note:

From Australian Woman's Day magazine. Suggested you serve with baguette toasts and or cornichons (small gherkins). Servings are a guess but makes 1 1/2 cups. I have also made this using Philadelphia ultra low fat cream cheese and it went over very well.

One of my friends came over for a visit and I wanted to make something for us to munch on while we were visiting. I used Vadalia onions in place of the green onions cause that's what I had in the fridge. I loved the dill and lemon with the other ingredients. Oh what flavor. Served on whole wheat crackers they were delish!

Love salmon or trout dip, and this recipe was excellent. I used red salmon as specified in the recipe, and added capers, as suggested by duonyte and a few grindings of freshly ground black pepper as suggested by KITTENCAL. Apart from that, I made this exactly to the recipe. Next time I make this, I'm going to try 1/2 cream cheese and 1/2 feta, not because I'm dissatisfied with the recipe as it is, but because I love experimenting. The spring onions and dill were great in this, as was the lemon juice. Thanks for sharing a super recipe, I'm Pat!

delicious, I used mayonnaise in place of the cream and increased the fresh dill, also added freshly ground black pepper, a 4 hour chilling time increased the flavor, my DH enjoyed this on crackers, thanks Pat!
