Smoked Salmon Spread; Tomato Salsa - Cuisinart Core Custom FP-110C Series Instruction And Recipe Booklet

Smoked Salmon Spread

Spreading this onto a fresh bagel is the obvious choice, but it can also be used in tea sandwiches
or on crackers. We love the addition of dill pickles, but you can use fresh dill instead for a more
traditional flavour.
Yield: about 1 cup (250 ml)
INGREDIENTS
8 ounces ([227 g] 1 standard package)
plain cream cheese, cut into 8 pieces
and room temperature
3 2-inch (5 cm) strips lemon zest
(bitter white pith removed), optional
2 teaspoons (10 ml) drained capers,
optional
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor. Add the cream cheese and
lemon zest. Pulse a few times to break up, then process on High until smooth.
2. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the capers if using, pickles, dill, salmon, and pepper
and pulse until fully combined, about 20 times. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.

Tomato Salsa

Serve warm tortilla chips alongside this fresh and tangy salsa.

INGREDIENTS
1 garlic clove, peeled
1 jalapeño, seeded and cut into
½-inch (1.25 cm) pieces
½ small onion, cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm)
pieces
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor. With the machine running
on High, drop the garlic and jalapeño through the feed tube to finely chop. Add the onion,
and pulse to chop, about 3 times. Add the tomatoes, cilantro, salt, and lime juice and pulse
to chop until desired consistency is reached, about 8 to 10 pulses.
