This is a savory, breakfast spread. Equally delicious on bagels or bagel slices, bagel chips, rye bread, crackers, or carrot sticks. It’s a breeze to prepare and keeps well. It can be made the day before your brunch.
Look for the most quality ingredients you can find. Everything is available at Zabar’s. Zabar’s Nova Salmon is what I use to prepare this, but if you want to try something different experiment with the Peppered Nova or the Gravlox. Wow!
Enjoy and let use know what you spread it on!
Nova Cream Cheese Spread
By Tiffany Ludwig
Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese
4 oz sour cream
4 oz smoked nova salmon, chopped into fine pieces
1.5 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoon capers
2 tablespoon red onion
1 tablespoon fresh dill
Preparation
Blend together cream cheese and sour cream. Add lemon juice, capers, red onion and dill and stir until combined. Gently mix in the nova salmon until evenly mixed.
Serve in a bowl for self-serve or dollop onto bagel chips to prepare individual portions.
Note: If I’ll be preparing a platter before serving I often retain just a little bit of the nova, dill or red onion to sprinkle on top. It looks fresh and beautiful!
