Low Fat Salmon Mousse Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle gelatin on cold water and let it stand for 5 minutes.
• Heat water until gelatin melts.
• Puree salmon with mayonnaise and yoghurt.
• Pour gelatin into salmon puree and add dill, onion, lemon juice, parsley and pepper.
• Combine thoroughly and refrigerate until mousse is partially set. (It should form a heap when dropped off a spoon.).
• Pour into two lightly oiled moulds and chill for at least 3 hours.
• Unmould by briefly holding in a bowl of warm water and inverting onto a serving plate.

Steps:

• For the salmon:
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Season salmon fillet with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely, the chill for at least 30 minutes.
• For the mousse: Put the chilled salmon fillet in a food processor. Add all other ingredients and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Scald milk and set aside. In a saucepan over low heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Add flour to melted butter and cook, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon, 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture is very thick. Add the scalded milk, all at once, and beat with a wire whisk over low heat for 5 minutes more, until the bechamel is thick and smooth. Add salt, pepper and cayenne, remove from heat and set aside to cool until lukewarm.
• Skin and bone salmon meat and flake with a fork. Cut remaining butter into chunks. Add salmon and butter to bechamel and mix well, using an electric beater rather than a blender or processor.
• Add cream and Cognac to salmon mixture and blend thoroughly. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, pepper or cayenne if necessary.
• Refrigerate, covered, until the mixture has thickened sufficiently to allow piping through a pastry bag and tube - 2 to 3 hours, or overnight.
• While the mixture is cooling, remove tops from tomatoes and scoop out flesh. Stand tomatoes upside down on a rack to drain. When the salmon mixture is ready, pipe it into the hollowed-out tomatoes and top with a few grains of red salmon roe. Extra mousse can be served in a bowl topped with more roe.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F Rinse fish and pat dry.
• Place fillets skin side down in a single layer in a greased 9x13 pan.
• Whisk sour cream, mayo, flour, lemon juice, dill, cream cheese, garlic and wine in a medium bowl until smooth and spread over fish.
• Season with salt, pepper and paprika to taste.
• Bake uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes until internal temp is 140 F or middle inside of fish is slightly opaque. Fish will continue to cook for a few minutes after removing from oven.
• Transfer to serving platter spooning sauce over fish and sprinkling with additional paprika and dill to garnish if desired.

Steps:

• If you aren't using smoked salmon trimmings then chop the salmon into small pieces. Tip the soft cheese, crème fraîche (if using) and lemon juice into a food processor, season generously with black pepper and blitz to your liking. Add the smoked salmon and pulse a few times if you want the paté chunky or blitz some more if you want the paté smooth and pink.
• Stir the herbs into the paté and spoon into a large or four smaller bowls and serve with warm toast as a starter or with breadsticks as a dip.
