1. Smoked Salmon Cardamom Spread

Then, squeeze the juice of half a lemon and grate in lemon zest. Process the entire concoction in a blender or food processor. Remove the salmon mixture and add it to the bowl. Coarsely chop an additional half pound of smoked salmon and add it to the mixture. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate. When it’s ready to serve, spread this creamy dip on crackers or bread and enjoy!

2. Smoked Salmon Pizza With Dill Sauce

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees and, on a lightly floured surface, roll out eight ounces of prepared pizza dough. Next, transfer the dough onto a baking sheet and brush it with one tablespoon of olive oil. Cover the dough with ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion and bake it for six to eight minutes until the crust is golden brown. Remove it from the oven and let it stand for five minutes. Spread the dough with a dill sauce made from a combination of ½ cup sour cream, one tablespoon of chopped fresh dill, one tablespoon of chopped red onion, and 1½ teaspoons of fresh lemon juice. Arrange six ounces of thinly sliced wild Alaskan smoked salmon over the top, slice into six slices, and serve.

3. Smoked Fish in Caper Cream Sauce

Steam 1½ pounds of kippered Wild Alaskan smoked salmon, then flake the fish into bite-sized pieces with two forks and remove the bones. Melt two tablespoons of butter in a pan, then stir in two tablespoons of flour and cook until bubbly. Remove it from the heat and slowly stir in one cup of light cream or half-and-half. Add one tablespoon of chopped capers and continue stirring until thick. Mix in the flaked fish and combine before serving on crisp toast points.
