SMOKED SALMON, FROMAGE BLANC AND CAPER SPREAD
One selling point of smoked salmon is that you don't need to do much to it to get it on the table - but take it a step further and break out of the canape cliché. Here, you'll whip it up in the food processor with fennel and cream cheese for a light spread. Serve it with baguette slices. It's a quarter-hour of work for a savory, guest-friendly appetizer.

Steps:
- In a food processor, purée the salmon to a paste. Add the egg and pulse. Add the fromage blanc, cream cheese, lemon juice, fennel, salt and capers. Pulse a few times until light, fluffy and well blended. Scrape into a serving bowl, fold in 1 1/2 tablespoons of the chives and chill. Sprinkle the remaining chives over the dip and serve with baguette slices (or crackers).

SMOKED SALMON SPREAD
Steps:
- Cream the cheese in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until just smooth. Add the sour cream, lemon juice, dill, horseradish, salt, and pepper, and mix. Add the smoked salmon and mix well. Chill and serve with crudites or crackers.
- If you can find it, I prefer Norwegian salmon; it's drier and less salty than other smoked salmon.
