Best Smoked Salmon With Capers Pickled Shallots Recipes

SMOKED SALMON WITH CAPERS & PICKLED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Put the vinegar and sugar into a heavy-based saucepan and bring to the boil, allowing the sugar to dissolve. Add the sliced shallots to the warm liquid, stir through, then tip into a dish and cover with cling film. Set aside.
• Arrange the smoked salmon in the centre of each plate, making sure that the slices slightly overlap, and set aside.
• Put the frisée salad, the chives, capers, a little of the shallot vinegar and some of the shallots into a mixing bowl and toss together. Spoon the mixture over the salmon and serve with a few twists of black pepper, a drizzle of oil and lemon wedges on the side.

SMOKED SALMON, CUCUMBER, CAPERS & SODA BREAD

Steps:

• First, make the soda bread. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 4 and dust a large baking sheet with flour. In a large bowl, combine the flours, bicarbonate of soda and 1 /4 tsp salt. Pour the buttermilk, egg and honey into a jug and whisk to combine.
• Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Using a wooden spoon, bring the mixture together to form a dough - if it's too wet and sticky, add a little extra flour. Shape into a rough ball and place on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle over a little flour, make a criss-cross incision on top of the loaf and bake in the oven for 35 mins - the bread is cooked when you tap the bottom and it sounds hollow. Slide onto a wire rack to cool a little before slicing.
• Meanwhile, using a peeler, slice the cucumber into long ribbons all the way around, but discard the seeded centre. Place in a bowl, sprinkle with a little seasoning and mix well with the dill.
• Serve at the table with the salmon slices, capers, lemon wedges, soda bread and butter.

PASTA WITH SMOKED SALMON AND CAPERS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, but not browned. Add the smoked salmon and continue cooking just until the salmon turns opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the cream and add the capers. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Be careful how much salt you add because the smoked salmon and capers are both salty. Add the pasta and toss to coat. If there doesn't appear to be enough sauce, add a couple of tablespoons of the pasta cooking water to thin it down. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

SMOKED SALMON WITH FRESH DILL AND CAPERS

• Melt the butter add all the flour at one time and cook until a sandy texture is achieved. Slowly add the half-and-half, mixing well, and bringing to a boil after each addition. Add the onion with the bay leaf and clove, and simmer for 45 minutes.
• Strain before using.

Season, add the lime juice and fresh dill, and serve over 6 ounces cooked pasta of choice. Garnish with 2 tablespoons deep fried capers.
• Melt the butter. Add all the flour at once and cook until the texture is sandy. Slowly add the half-and-half, mixing well. Add the onion, cloves, and bay leaf. Simmer for approximately 45 minutes, until the floury taste is cooked out and the sauce evenly and thickly coats the back of a spoon.

SMOKED SALMON WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS AND DILLED CREAM

Steps:

• Melt butter with olive oil in small skillet over medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced shallot, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and sauté until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer sautéed shallots to paper towels to drain completely (shallot pieces will crisp as they cool). DO AHEAD: Crispy shallots can be made up to 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Arrange baguette slices or water crackers on plate. Spread thin layer of dilled cream over each baguette slice or cracker. Carefully arrange salmon slices atop, dividing equally. Spoon small dollop of dilled cream atop each, sprinkle with crispy shallots, and serve.

• Top each with an equal amount of the smoked salmon.
• Sprinkle with red onions and capers; season with black pepper.
