Salmon Dip

This is a tasty appretizer dip that we usually serve with dry crackers at every holiday party and other special celebrations. It also goes well with a crudite platter. I've tried using canned smoked salmon and thought it tasted more like tuna. So I highly recommend using one of those vacuum-sealed packages of smoked salmon.
