Time 15m

Yield about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1/2 whole smoked whitefish (about 2 pounds) (see note)
1 hard-boiled large egg, finely chopped
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the onions in a small bowl and cover with cold water. Let soak for 15 minutes. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, using a small knife and your hands, remove the skin, bones, and any brown bits from the whitefish and discard. Flake the whitefish into small pieces into a medium bowl, checking again for any bones.
  • Add the egg and onion to the whitefish and mash together with a fork. Stir in the mayonnaise and lemon juice. (For a smoother textured salad, pulse the whitefish mixture in a food processor.) Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
