Schmear (Cream Cheese With Lox Spread) Recipe #362219
Try serving this "schmear" with some fresh bagels at your next brunch. You could add a tablespoon or so of fresh chopped dill or parsley or even a couples of tablespoons of drained capers, but I like it kept simple. For appetizers, serve the schmear along with cocktail-sized rye bread slices.
10 min | 10 min prep
1 1/2 cups
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
- 3 scallions, trimmed and coarsely chopped
- 4-5 slices lox or smoked salmon
- salt and pepper, to taste
- In a food processor, work the cream cheese until it is smooth, turning off the motor and scraping down the sides of the work bowl several times.
- Add the scallions, lox, salt and pepper. Continue working the cream cheese mixture until it is blended (by the way, it is okay if there are some chunks of salmon in the mixture).
- Remove cream cheese mixture to a pretty container or small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve. Schmear on bagels, matzoh, or toasted pumpernickel or rye bread, or whatever you like.
