About Salmon mousse

Salmon mousse is a smooth, creamy delicacy made from blending cooked or smoked salmon with ingredients like cream cheese, heavy cream, butter, lemon juice, and seasonings such as dill or chives. Originating from European cuisine, particularly French culinary traditions, this dish is often served as an appetizer or spread for bread, crackers, or vegetables. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids from the salmon, the mousse offers heart-healthy benefits and supports brain function. However, its high fat content from cream and butter, as well as sodium levels from smoked salmon, may be a concern for those mindful of calorie intake or sodium sensitivity. Typically indulgent in texture and flavor, salmon mousse is a luxurious option for special occasions or gatherings, best enjoyed in moderation for a balanced diet.
