Salmon mousse is one of those recipes: It looks sophisticated and tastes bright and savory, but it&#8217;s very approachable to prepare.<\/p>\n<p>Keep this smoked salmon mousse on hand for gatherings that call for little nibbles (it&#8217;s nearly as easy as putting together a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/fruit-and-cheese-board\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/fruit-and-cheese-board\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fruit and cheese board<\/a>, but it will stand out in a table spread) or upgraded appetizers. But with its ease and the nutrients from the salmon, if you smear it on a bagel it doubles as a way to take a new spin on your snack routine or breakfast game.<\/p>\n<h2>Salmon Mousse Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2018144\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Salmon-Mousse_TOHD24_65629_AlejandroMonfort_1-e1722361035818.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Taste Of Home Salmon Mousse\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Alejandro Monfort for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>English cucumbers:<\/strong> These will make up the base of your salmon bites. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-an-english-cucumber\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-an-english-cucumber\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">English cucumbers<\/a> are generally longer and thinner than their American counterparts, as well as sweeter and better for raw snacking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cream cheese:<\/strong> Cream cheese is an essential component of the mousse&#8217;s base. It provides structure, creaminess and a little bit of tang.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Smoked salmon or lox:<\/strong> Smoked salmon is often cured and always smoked; lox is only cured. If you&#8217;re craving that smoky, salty flavor, opt for smoked salmon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>2% milk:<\/strong> Since cream cheese is thicker, milk helps thin out the mousse and makes it more spreadable. We opt for 2% because it&#8217;s lighter than whole.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lemon-pepper seasoning:<\/strong> The zing of lemon and pepper brightens up the dish and provides more dimension as it plays up the salty, savory flavors of the salmon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fresh dill:<\/strong> Salmon and dill are tried-and-true companions. Here, the dill is both blended into the mousse and used as a garnish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heavy whipping cream:<\/strong> Whipped and folded into the mousse, the whipping cream will add lightness and fluffiness for a more classic mousse texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Prepare the cucumbers<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2018145\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Salmon-Mousse_TOHD24_65629_AlejandroMonfort_2-e1722360360288.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Taste Of Home Salmon Mousse\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Alejandro Monfort for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Peel strips from the cucumbers to create a decorative edge.

Fold it into the salmon mixture.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip:<\/em> You can also use a blender here if a food processor isn&#8217;t available.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Prepare the smoked salmon canap\u00e9s<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2018152\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Salmon-Mousse_TOHD24_65629_AlejandroMonfort_9-e1722361058740.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Taste Of Home Salmon Mousse\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Alejandro Monfort for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Pipe or dollop the mousse onto the cucumber slices, then garnish each with dill. Refrigerate until ready to serve.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip:<\/em> For the best flavor, refrigerate for at least an hour.<\/p>\n<h2>Salmon Mousse Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Up the spice:<\/strong> If you want a little heat, sprinkle a bit of cayenne pepper into the mousse, adjusting to taste. Just make sure to add it slowly, as a little bit of cayenne can contain a lot of spice.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Try a culinary caper:<\/strong> Capers and smoked salmon have always been good friends; top the canap\u00e9s with capers for an extra burst of saltiness. To play with the toppings more, try subbing chives for the dill.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Horse around a bit:<\/strong> For a little more zing, mix in some horseradish. It&#8217;s spicy and sharp and will give your mousse a little more of a punch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Salmon Mousse<\/h2>\n<p>Store this salmon mousse in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can freeze it for up to two months in an airtight container, but we find it best when it&#8217;s enjoyed fresh. The fluffiness and flavor can decrease when it&#8217;s frozen and then thawed.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make salmon mousse ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, and we advise that you do! Store it in the fridge after making it, and serve it cold. It can be even tastier the next day, after the flavors have had a chance to infuse.<\/p>\n<h2>Salmon Mousse Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2018153\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Salmon-Mousse_TOHD24_65629_AlejandroMonfort_10-e1722361194849.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Taste Of Home Salmon Mousse\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Alejandro Monfort for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you make this recipe for salmon mousse with canned salmon?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes.
