This recipe caught my eye because the write up on the internet claimed it used ingredients you have around the house. I don't have smoked salmon nor fresh dill laying around the house so I had to substitute. I used a 5oz can of skinless boneless salmon. I drained it well and flaked it in to a bowl. I added a few drops of liquid smoke and let it set for about an hour. I used 1/2tsp of dill weed in place of the fresh dill. I added 1/2tsp smoked paprika and a few drops of Frank's hot sauce to add a little bite. The horseradish is a nice touch. It went over very well. I'll go by the recipe the next time I smoke a salmon and fresh dill is available.

Not sure how you say Yum in Scandinavian - but this was yum! Very simple to make and was great with crackers. I added a little more horseradish just because I really like the zing. Thanks cookiedog for a nice treat. Made by a fellow Unruly Under the Influence for ZWT6.

Creamy, rich tasting and with just that little bit of zip from the horseradish floating around in the background. I appreciated there not being any onion in this as raw onion is one of the few food items I just can't bare to eat and it features in so many dip and salad recipes. I used the reduced fat versions of both the cream cheese and sour cream to allow most of the fat in the dip to be from the healthy fats in the smoked salmon. I had this spread on some rice cakes for my lunch. Made for Zee Zany Zesty Cookz for ZWT6.

I am in love with this spread. Seriously. Made it exactly how it is listed. It's even better the longer it sits in the fridge; the flavors mingle together really well. Now my mouth is watering...

Absolutely beautiful in color, taste, and treat. After a long hot day, this was so good to sit down and enjoy. I used Nova Scotia thinly sliced smoked salmon, which sat beautifully on cucumbers, capers, red onions and dill. I added fresh horseradish, and wonderfully homemade cream cheese. Mine sat for the day, until evening when all the flavors had come together, and it was a bite from heaven. Thank you so much, cookiedog! Made for *ZWT4* June 2008.

I made the spread without the smoked salmon.I serve Pacific smoked salmon on the side and added a bit on each cracker as well as capers and chopped onions. Turned out so good; the horseradish surprised me but added a nice flavour.Thanks for posting.
I made this for WT4

I love this! The horseradish really gives it a nice flavor. I love the lemon and also added a little lemon zest. Very creamy!

Can this really get better after 2 days?! Mixed this up tonight for a wine tasting party on Wednesday. I can barely hold myself back from licking the bowl! Already it smells and tastes soooo good. Great combination of flavors! I am so glad I found this recipe!

I had this at a friend's house and it was great...and I am neither wild about smoke salmon or dill. We had it with corn chips which may not be to the gourmet standards of the Contessa but is very yummy. My friend's father has a smoker and supplied the salmon giving the dip a leap in quality, IMHO. Easy to prepare, my kind of recipe.

I made this for a baby shower, and everyone loved it, even children! I served it with cucumber slices and mini bagel halves, and it got all eaten. I did adjust the salt, since salmon can be salty, and I added 1/4 tsp. more black pepper, but after that, it was really good! Thanks for posting this recipe, because I noticed it has expired off of the Food Network website.

Honestly, I'm not a fish person, but I had a gathering at my home with about 40 women so I decided to try it. Unfortunately, it was the only appetizer that was left on the table and the only one that no one asked for the recipe. I followed the directions exactly as written and made it two days ahead as instructed. Thanks for the recipe.

I'm so happy this is on here-thank you for posting! This dip really is the bomb dot com. I get so many compliments on it. I serve it with crustini, but I'm hosting an elegant appetizer party so i'm going to try putting it into cucumber cups. It has beautiful flavors..the lemon, horseradish and salmon together are perfection!

Another winner Cookiedog, this was sooo good. We enjoyed it very much. I made this during the Christmas holidays, it was such a hit that I will also be making this tasty tasty spread for New Years' Eve. I let the spread sit for two days before serving. What a delicious intense flavour. The cream cheese, smoked salmon, horseradish and lemon juice really blend well together and the kosher salt, really enhances the flavour. I added 3 tbsps finely minced sweet onion for a garnish. I served this with flatbreads, grain crackers, pita chips and small pieces of sesame bagels. Thanks Cookiedog for sharing this new family favourite that I will be making often.
I have made this several times now and I must say that we never get tired of it...gets better with age, if it lasts that long...Its a great recipe!

I love smoked salmon, this dip is very tasty. Ive made others but this one tops them all. I think its the lemon juice and the horseradish that makes it sooo good. I chopped the salmon up and then put everything in the food processor nice and easy. Thanks Cookiedog my family really enjoyed this one.
