FRESH AND SMOKED SALMON SPREAD



Fresh And Smoked Salmon Spread image

This recipe appeared in The Times in 1998, with a review of the "Le Bernardin Cookbook" by the chef Eric Ripert and Maguy Le Coze, Le Bernardin's owner. This fresh and smoked salmon spread pairs well with toasted bread, which is how they preferred to eat it each day at lunchtime.
