Low Carb Smoked Salmon Dip
So, you’re sticking to your guns on your new low-carb lifestyle. Good for you! As football season and winter holidays approach, I hope to offer some extra celebration recipes that you can still enjoy on a low-carb or ketogenic diet. Although I have unabashedly photographed today’s Smoked Salmon Dip Recipe with baguette slices or bagel chips, it’s just as delicious, and ultra low carb, if you serve it with raw cut vegetables or keto chips. Over the years, we have made all sorts of smoked salmon spread variations, some from famous chefs, some using ingredients to clean out the refrigerator, and even some for speed and convenience. However, this 10-ingredient version is the smoked salmon dip recipe that my family thinks is the best. You can use store-bought smoked salmon, or leftover salmon you smoked at home. Either way, it turns out pearly pink, perky, and packed with flavor!
What Ingredients You Will Need
Smoked Salmon – When buying this at the market, look for dense vacuum-packed wild-caught fillets. Cream Cheese – This creates a thick silky base. Sour Cream – Some recipes call for mayonnaise instead of sour cream, but I feel it makes the dip too sweet. You can use 1/2 cup for a thick “spread-like” dip or 3/4 cup sour cream for a dip that is better for scooping. Scallions – Green onions, chives, or red onions. A little goes a long way. Capers – Don’t overkill on the capers, or the dip will be too salty. Lemon Zest – For extra zip! (No fresh lemon juice needed.) Dill – Fresh is best. Use the rest of the bunch in salads and dressings. Horseradish – This adds a unique underlying flavor, you can’t quite put your finger on. Smoked Paprika – My favorite spice to accentuate the smoky essence of the salmon. Crushed Red Pepper – For a little kick! Add as much as you like.
