Instructions

  1. Take 2 and ½ ounces cream cheese out of the refrigerator about half an hour ahead of time to allow it to come to room temperature. Peel and finely chop ½ medium onion. Open a can of 3 and ¾ ounces sardines, partially drain the oil, and save it for later.
  2. Put the sardines, cream cheese, and chopped onion in a bowl. Drizzle with fresh 2 teaspoons lemon juice; watch out for the pits.
  3. Mash with a fork until everything comes together. If you want a smoother, less thick spread, add a little more of the oil you skimmed off the sardines earlier.
  4. Season with salt to taste, and stir once more.

Notes

  • The basic recipe makes about 1 smaller cup of fish spread. If you need a larger quantity, simply multiply the number of ingredients.
  • Smear the sardine dip on slices of white or rye bread. Garnish the sardine spread with sweet&sour pickled cucumber. The taste of cucumbers complements this spread fantastically.
  • Place the spread in an airtight container or a bowl covered with cling film. This will prevent the dip from drying out on the surface. Store the sardine spread in the fridge and use it within three days.
  • The spread has a coarser, more rustic texture thanks to the chopped onions. If you prefer a smoother spread, blend it with an immersion blender.
