Ingredients (15)

  • 10 oz skinless boneless salmon
  • 5 oz celery cut into sticks, separate 1 oz for cooking
  • 4 oz cucumber cut into sticks
  • 4 oz red bell pepper cut into sticks
  • 2 oz French baguette sliced on a bias
  • 4 oz carrot cut into sticks
  • 2 oz onion
  • 1 oz cream cheese
  • 0.5 oz dill save 1 tbsp chopped
  • 2 cups water
  • 0.25 oz canned caper rinsed
  • 2 tbsp whole milk
  • 2 tbsp Japanese mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

1

Add 2 cups of water to a pot along with 4 oz celery, 2 oz onion, and 0.5 oz dill (save 1 tbsp for later). Bring it to a boil.

2

Add 10 oz skinless boneless salmon and cook for about 3 minutes. Scoop it out once finished and set it aside in a bowl to cool for about 5 minutes. Cut the veggies into fingers if you haven’t already.

3

Add the cooked salmon to a food processor and blend until it all turns flaky. If you want to avoid the food processor, mash the salmon with a fork.

4

Mix salmon with 1 oz cream cheese, 2 tbsp Japanese mayonnaise, 2 tbsp milk, 1 tbsp dill you saved earlier, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp ground black pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.

5

To serve, cook the baguette in a preheated oven or an air fryer at 375°F for about 2-3 minutes or until crisp.

6

Add 0.25 oz capers on top of the dip, and serve it with crispy baguette slices and vegetable sticks (4 oz each of celery, carrot, cucumber, and bell peppers).
