Smoked Whitefish Dip With Bagel Chips Recipes

SMOKED SALMON DIP WITH BAGEL CHIPS

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine mayonnaise, cream cheese, capers, red onion, lemon juice, horseradish, and 2 ounces smoked salmon. Process until smooth, about 20 seconds. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in remaining 2 ounces smoked salmon. Top with fresh parsley and serve with bagel chips.

SMOKED WHITEFISH DIP

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the cream cheese and mayonnaise and stir together until smooth. Add the dill, scallions, lemon zest, lemon juice, onion, salt and pepper and stir together until thoroughly combined. Add the fish and fold in, making sure to keep big chunks intact. Pour the dip into a 1-quart cast-iron skillet or baking dish. Top with the crushed rye toast chips and everything-bagel seasoning. Bake until golden and bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with dill and serve hot with Bagel Chips.
• Place an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Drizzle the olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, liberally oil the baking sheet in an even layer.
• Add the bagel slices and coat both sides with olive oil, adding more as needed. Sprinkle with salt. Bake until toasted, 10 to 12 minutes. Flip the bagels and continue to toast on the other side until golden brown and crispy, another 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the pan (to retain a slight chew in the center), or, if you prefer a completely crisp chip, then place on a cooling rack.

EVERYTHING-BAGEL SMOKED SALMON DIP

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt, trout, dill, lemon zest and juice and everything-bagel seasoning. Season with black pepper. (The fish and bagel seasoning are both salty, so you likely won't need additional salt.)
• Spoon into a serving bowl and top with more everything-bagel seasoning, black pepper and dill. Eat with any mix of dippers. (It keeps in the fridge for up to 4 days, but season again with lemon, salt and pepper before eating.)
