For the Homemade Boursin Dip:
- ½ cup salted butter softened
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
- 2 teaspoons fresh chives chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 small clove garlic chopped
- freshly ground black pepper
For the rest:
- 2 ounces smoked salmon chopped
- 4 ounces cooked salmon chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers drained
- ¼ cup red onion or shallots; finely diced
- sliced baguette or sourdough bread; toasted
Combine the softened butter and cream cheese in a food processor bowl. You can use a stand or hand mixer, but ensure the herbs and garlic are finely chopped before adding them.
Add the fresh chives, dill, thyme, and chopped garlic to the food processor. Pulse until smooth, making sure the herbs and garlic are well distributed throughout the mixture.
Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste. A few twists should be enough, but you can adjust based on preference.
Fold the chopped smoked salmon, chopped cooked salmon, drained capers and red onions into the cheese spread.
Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Chef Jenn's Tips
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened before working with it to get the creamiest spread.
- Don't over mix the salmon - you want to see nice big chunks of it.
- You can start with store-bought Boursin if you want to shave a few minutes off the prep time.
