Hot Smoked Salmon Dip
Are you hosting any of the holidays this year? I’ve never hosted Thanksgiving or Christmas on my own, but I’ve often been tasked with bringing part of the meal. The trickiest task to me is bringing an appetizer. What won’t upstage the main dishes by being too filling or too similar in flavor? This year, I’m going for a warm, gooey Hot Smoked Salmon Dip.
I love smoked salmon anytime — on a bagel with cream cheese, by itself as a snack. But this might be the crème de la crème of smoked salmon dishes: Hot Smoked Salmon Dip.
This dip is made with a creamy mix of mayonnaise, cream cheese, and horseradish for a kick. It’s topped with buttery, spiced panko breadcrumbs before being baked to bubbly perfection.
I served this Hot Smoked Salmon Dip with RW Garcia gluten-free artisan crackers in “Harvest” flavor. RW Garcia products contain no additives or preservatives and only the highest quality, premium ingredients. The Harvest flavor is a mixture of blue corn and pumpkin, the perfect savory base for this creamy dip!
