Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese
4 oz smoked salmon
½ lemon juiced
¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup sour cream
2 tbsp dill
1 tbsp capers
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste

Instructions

Put the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and the juice of the lemon into a food processor. Process until well combined.
Then, add the smoked salmon, capers, dill (make sure to remove the stems), salt, and pepper to the cream cheese mixture and process again.
Make sure you don’t let it process for too long, so you keep little chunks of smoked salmon for texture.
Serve with toast or crostini.

Notes

If you are finding that your dip is too thick, try adding an extra splash of lemon juice or a bit of olive oil to thin it out.

In order to keep some larger pieces of smoked salmon in the dip, try using the pulse function on your food processor. This will give you some extra control over how much the dip mixture blends.

Store leftovers in an airtight container. It will keep for up to ** days in the refrigerator.
