Cooking Notes

Marc from São Paulo by way of San Francisco

Using non-fat Greek yogurt makes this a Zero Point WW meal, and does not significantly impact mouth feel or taste. I use NF Greek yogurt as a substitute for mayonnaise in my tuna salad and can have a creamy delicious food high in protein low on fat and extremely satisfying.

Trader Joe’s has an Everything Bagel Spice Blend!

It's Everything But the Bagel at Trader's Joe's.

Loved this recipe! We had some salmon that a friend caught and smoked so we used that (don’t skimp on the salmon!) I swapped green onion for the dill because that’s what I had and we used skyr (Icelandic yogurt) which is much thicker and creamier. Our family devoured this dip.

Jeanette

Added capers and a little bit of cream cheese. I used chives instead of dill because that's what I had on hand. The chives gave the dip a greenish tint but were really yummy and looked pretty sprinkled on top as a garnish. Lovely and light served with veg, potato chips, and an extremely cold martini!

I followed advice and only added half of the lemon juice. I also added on more teaspoon of the everything bagel blend. Hot smoked salmon is common in the PNW but expensive so I only added 5 ozs. The dip turned out good. I wish it was a little more thick. Maybe draining the yogurt first would be a good idea. Serving the dip with pita chips and celery. Cool and crisp.

At HEB, they call it Bagel Not Included Spice Blend, and it worked just fine. I couldn't find my jar of dill, so I didn't worry about it. I used Penzey's lemon pepper as well as the lemon zest and juice, and the result has plenty of flavor.

Rietta

Cold smoked (or cured) salmon/fish is a lot more moist and doesn't tend to crumble as much. If you get smoked salmon at the market that is a chunk/block of salmon and kind of hard, it's probably hot smoked...pretty sure cold smoked/cured is usually sold in thin slices (think lox). Oh, and hot smoked fish is still usually refrigerated :-).

There is also a generic version of Everything Bagel spice at certain Costco's!

We found Aldi stonemill everything bagel seasoning just as good as TJ and it’s only $1.99!

Wow!Made the Everything Bagel Seasoning. NIce.Added a little bit of chopped red onion to this recipe. Very nice.

A hefty dollop of Kelchners white horseradish puts this over the top! Delicious on slices of honey crisps and perfect for football snacks.

Kathy

Costco also has an Everything Bagel seasoning

Leslie

Enjoyed by all at Christmas. I added a couple of tablespoons of cream cheese, had to settle for freeze-dried dill, and used half the lemon juice, but otherwise stayed with the recipe. One thing I would advise: Mix everything except for the salmon first, and then add in salmon. I came close to overmixing and having the chunks of salmon disappear. Would def make again.

Barbara Aschenbrenner

I agree, nonfat Greek yogurt worked beautifully. Since I was also doing a bit of a fridge clean out, I also finished off some lowfat sour cream. It’s all good.

LBT

So...made this last night for a holiday gathering. It was awesome. I was not familiar with hot smoked salmon - but am super lucky to have neighbors who fish in AK yearly & smoke their own and are very generous! Dialed back the TJ's EB seasoning, went light on the lemon and heavy on the dill. Will make again!

Heather

can you use cold smoked salmon??

mary

made this just as directed for a 3-year old's birthday party. She loved it! And so did I. Addictive with cucumber slices and tortilla chips

KFack

Used Trader Joe's tinned smoked salmon along with TJ's Everything But the Bagel seasoning. It was a hit!

k arb

Used low fat Greek yogurt 1/2 the amount of lemon zest and lemon juice

Randi

Was short on yogurt so subbed in a bit of sour cream to make up the difference. Tasty.

I used the full lemon juice amount and immediately regretted it. Added some cream cheese to try to mellow it out. Will use sparingly next time.

Val

This was delicious with a variety of fresh cut veggies for a brunch menu. Recommend cautious tasting as you go when adding the Everything-But-The-Bagel seasoning. Depending on which brand or recipe you use, and the saltiness of the smoked fish, the seasoning can make the dip overly salty. Try half the seasoning, and taste before adding more. Use all the recommended dill, even if you're not a big dill fan as it makes the dip!

Lizzy

Made this for a party today, I used 1/2 fa*ge greek yogurt (5% baby!) and 1/2 lactose free green valley cream cheese. I find fa*ge brand to be thicker than other greek yogurts, and it would hold up well on its own. I just wanted a little extra creaminess with the cream cheese. I used a little more than 1/2 the amount of lemon juice, as others have noted - and that was perfect. I have TJ's everything bagel spice - and so used about 1/2-3/4 the amount. Party goers ate it all and raved about it!

LO

Made this for my monthly game night gathering with non-fat Greek yogurt (thanks Marc from Sao Paulo) and the entire 12 oz package of cold-smoked salmon. It needed a little something so chopped capers and finely diced red onion got added. This dip was SO good! Only about a tablespoon remained at the end of the evening even though there were a million dips on the table. Will definitely be making this again. Oh - my everything seasoning came from Costco. Great price and not too salty.
