Recipes for smoked salmon

I just like them with cream cheese, black pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice on fresh brown/granary bread from the bread maker!

Hi, you can make a salmon mousse, just put them in a blander with light cream cheese or ricotta (1/3 salmon , 2/3 cheese) add som lemon juice, capers and fresh ground pepper. Spread it on fresh bread or toast. You can also make a dip for vegetables.
It's very easy to make and great for entertaining.

I agree but just good old fashioned English butter instead of cream cheese!

You could use them along with any white fish (cod, haddock, etc) to make a nice fish pie, adds a lovely flavour.

I think they would make nice fishcakes.

I got a present of a side of smoked salmon for Christmas. With just me and two non fish eating daughters I froze quite a bit. (Still had to throw a bit out though :mad:

I thought of making fish cakes from one of the fab recipes on here. If I do this, can I freeze them? (the salmon will already have been frozen once). Since becoming moneysaving I hate to chuck anything out.

If I get one next year I'll just invite you all round and we can have a OS leftover food party!

I sometimes make a nice sauce for pasta by sauteing a chopped leek and chopped mushrooms in a little butter and oil until soft, add about 1/2 small tub of cream (single or double) and a generous handful of smoked salmon bits. Check the seasoning and then toss your cooked pasta in the sauce. It takes only a few minutes to make whist your pasta is cooking. (A sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley goes well, and a bit of parmesan).

It is nice stirred into scrambled egg, too. Serve with toast.

You could make a pate with some cream cheese, lemon juice and herbs. Or add to fish pie, or on pizza's.

Hi, the general rule is:

Freeze once, cook, freeze twice.

So, if you're planning to cook the salmon after thawing it, then freezing a second time will be OK, from a hygiene point of view.

However, oily fish such as salmon tends to spoil, even in the freezer, so don't keep it deep frozen for too long, or the flavour may deteriorate.
