I didn't have any nuts nor cucumbers but it was still delicious ! The taste DOES get much better over time except it's hard to keep this dish in the fridge very long.

Great spread! I cut dark wheat bread into quarters. I used walnuts. Yummy!

Very good dip! I skipped the nuts and don't do mayo, so I substituted greek yogurt without any difficulties. Worked just fine. I didn't even bother forming it into a loaf - served this in a dip bowl with a cheese knife for spreading. I'm dieting at the moment so I dipped cucumbers and celery into mine-YUM! I will try this next time with canned crabmeat, as one of the other reviewers suggested. I think that would be great too! Regardless, this tasted sooooooooo good! Made for ZWT III 2007.

I loved this with rye crackers. Rather than shape it into a log, I packed it into several small ramekins to make single servings. I'm sure I'll be making this again. Thanks, Dawnie!

Put a little twist to it and used canned crab. Turned out great!
