Salmon Mousse is a smooth and creamy appetizer made from whipped smoked or cooked salmon blended with cream cheese or cream. Light, airy, and flavorful, it’s perfect for spreading on crackers or bread.

  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

  1. For the salmon:
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  3. Season salmon fillet with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely, the chill for at least 30 minutes.
