Our smoked salmon recipes

We often get asked for recommendations for some smoked salmon recipes.  Of course, there’s nothing like a simple piece of smoked salmon, maybe with a twist of black pepper or fresh lemon juice, on a cracker or perhaps a toasted muffin.  However, if you’re feeling a little more adventurous why not take a look at the following recipes, developed by our team at Uig.

SMOKED SALMON SOUFFLE

Ingredients
450g smoked salmon trimmings
½ pt milk
1oz butter
4 egg yolks
6 egg whites

Method
1. Melt butter in pan and add flour to make a roux.
2. Season with pepper or paprika/cayenne if preferred.
3. Add yolks beating them in one at a time and then the trimmings.
4. Whisk the egg whites until stiff (important) and fold them into the mix a little at a time.
5. Butter a soufflé dish or 4 individual ramekins and spoon in the mixture – make sure mixture fills approximately half of the dish to ensure proper rise.
6. Place dish or ramekins in hot – gas mark 6/200°C – for approximately 25/30 minutes.  For ramekins reduce cooking time to approximately 12/15 minutes.  Remember – oven must be hot when dishes go in – also place dishes on top shelf of oven for maximum temperature.

SMOKED FISH SOUP

Ingredients
2 smoked haddocks (about 1lb total weight)
1lb smoked salmon trimmings
1 large onion
2 potatoes (decent size)
2 pts milk (or milk and water mixed together)
Chopped parsley or chives

Method
1.Place the smoked haddock in milk and poach gently (ie. do not boil!) for approximately 5-10 minutes.
2. Remove fish from pan and keep to one side.
3. Add potato and onions to pan, roughly chopped, and cook until soft.
4. Liquidise the potato/onion/milk mixture and return it to pan.
5. Add the flaked cooked smoked haddock and the smoked salmon trimmings and season with black pepper.  Best not to add salt as smoked fish is normally salty enough.  Then add generous amounts of chopped parsley or chives.

2. Beat together yoghurt and egg.
3. Combine 1 and 2 in a mixing bowl and knead together until you have a smooth dough.
4. Shape the dough into a round and cut a large deep cross on top before transferring to a well oiled  baking tray.
