A little smoked salmon goes a long way in a fluffy mousse to serve as canapés. They are elegant and delicious, yet simple to make.

  • Course Hors D'oeuvres & Appetizers
  • Prep. Time 15 mins
  • Cooking Time 5 mins
  • Refrigeration Time 2 hrs
  • Yields 48 canapes

Preparation

What You Need

1 1/4 cups (310 ml) 35 % whipping cream
1 tsp (5 ml) finely grated lemon zest
1 tsp (5 ml) unflavoured gelatin powder
3 oz (90 g) finely chopped smoked salmon
1 tbsp (15 ml) chopped fresh dill
1 tsp (5 ml) chopped drained capers
Dash hot pepper sauce
48 mini toast crackers, baguette slices or
cucumber slices (approx.)
Chopped fresh dill or
strips of lemon zest

Instructions

In a small saucepan or glass bowl, combine 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the cream and the lemon zest; sprinkle with gelatin. Let stand for 5 min to soften gelatin. Heat saucepan over medium-low heat or microwave in bowl on medium-low (30 %) just until gelatin dissolves. Let cool to room temperature.

Stir salmon, dill, capers and hot pepper sauce into gelatin mixture. In a chilled bowl, whip remaining cream to firm peaks. Fold one-quarter into the salmon mixture to blend. Add into remaining whipped cream; gently fold until blended. Cover and refrigerate until chilled and thick, about 1 hour or for up to 1 day.

To serve, using a piping bag with a large star tip, if desired, pipe or spoon mousse onto crackers or cucumber slices. Sprinkle with dill or lemon zest for garnish.
