Key West Smoked Fish Dip
"My first trip to the Keys resulted in a whole new palate for me. One of my new yummies is this recipe. I got it from cooks.com and it is the closest thing to what we had at Conch republic. If you live close to Pittsburgh, you can get the smoked whitefish in the Strip at Wholeys."

The recipe calls for 3 Tb. of cream. Can you be more specific. Is it whipping cream, half & half, coffee creamer. The grocery store told me it's probably whipping cream but I wanted to make sure. Thanks

Just like the Keys restaurants make it...so delicious! It could use a little "bite" so will try adding some jalapenos or hot sauce next time. -
I made this with smoked catfish and added a bit of Old Bay seasoning. Everyone raves about it. -
Very good dip. Used smoked lake trout, doubled the recipe and it disappeared! -
Wonderful!!! My husband loves smoked fish dip and he raved about this one. So did everyone else at the party I took it to! I used Ducktrap Farms smoked trout. -
Great dip! I reduce the amount of cream to just 1 tablespoon and added more onion. Delicious.

Part time office worker, full time servant to 2 growing boys, and 1 wonderful husband! I work for my husband so i quess you could say i'm sleeping with my boss! I love to eat. While i'm eating 1 meal, i'm thinking about what i want to eat at the next meal. I could just live on sweets, and take a pill for all my vitamins, and nutrition. I have no strong passions other than being quite lazy. I strive to be more physically active, but that usually requires me to move. I quess i would rather die happy and slightly overweight, than skinny and hungry.
