    Step by stepInstructions

    1. Beat the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth.
    2. Fold in the smoked salmon, lemon juice, dill, capers, pepper, and red onion.
    3. Chill 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
    4. Serve with crackers, bagel chips, or crostini, garnished with extra dill.

    💡 Chef tips & storage

    Use a good-quality alder-smoked salmon — its flavor carries the whole dip. Make it a day ahead; it only gets better.
