Ingredients

• 8 ounces smoked trout fillet (skin and bones removed)
• 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
• 2 tablespoons sour cream
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons green onions (finely chopped)
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper (freshly ground)
• 0 optional salt (to taste)

Directions

Step 1

Step 1: Remove any skin and bones from the smoked trout fillet. Place the fillet in a medium mixing bowl and break it apart into small flakes using a fork.

Step 2

Step 2: Add the softened cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and black pepper to the bowl with the trout.

Step 3

Step 3: Using a hand mixer or a spatula, mix everything together until smooth and well combined. If you prefer a chunkier texture, keep folding the mixture by hand instead.

Step 4

Step 4: Gently fold in the chopped fresh dill and green onions until evenly distributed throughout the spread.

Step 5

Step 5: Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning by adding salt if necessary. Note that smoked trout is often salty, so add salt sparingly.

Step 6

Step 6: Transfer the spread to a serving bowl and cover it tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the spread to firm up slightly.

Step 7

Step 7: Serve chilled with crackers, toasted bread, or fresh vegetables. Garnish with a sprig of dill or a slice of lemon if desired.
