Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to a bowl and stir together.Tip: The lox will incorporate more easily if you add it to the bowl one slice at a time. Tear slices into small pieces when adding if desired.
  2. Use immediately, or optionally, rest dip in the fridge for about an hour before serving.Tip: The dip will taste delicious immediately, but the flavors will be even better after about an hour.
  3. Make Ahead: Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.

Notes

  • Yields about 2 cups of spread.  Serving size is estimated at 2oz of spread per person.
  • Shopping for Lox: 
  • Both traditional lox and cold-smoked salmon will work in this recipe.
  • You're looking for cold-smoked salmon, which is brightly colored, partially translucent, thinly shaved pieces of salmon.
  • For this recipe, skip the hot-smoked salmon, which is plumper, opaque, and looks like a cooked fillet of salmon.
  • You'll find lox in the refrigerated seafood area in the grocery store.
