Ingredients
- 8 oz fresh salmon
- 4 oz smoked salmon
- 1/3 cup chives finely chopped
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter plus additional 4 tablespoon for melting and sealing the salmon rillettes
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- Juice of one lemon
- ½ teaspoon of smoked paprika
- Bruschetta points
Directions
Start with the salmon filet you want to steam this for about 8 min then put it into an ice bath to chill it and stop the cooking, set this aside. Now in a bowl combine the chives, butter, olive oil, lemon juice and smoke paprika and mix well. Now flake the salmon and smoked salmon into the bowl and begin mixing to break it down until you have rough but smooth pieces of the fish in the mixture.
Taste for seasoning and adjust, some people want more lemon, more smokiness etc. Now traditionally this will be put into a jar but I used ramekins so fill one up, clean the edge and now take some melted butter and pour on top to make a seal. Chill in the fridge for at least an hour or better more.
To serve plate with some toast point or bruschetta, remove the butter seal and smear on the toast points and go crazy!
God Bless France!
