Spread Essentials: Sardine Pâté image

I had a fond memory the other day... sitting opposite my father in the kitchen nook. On the table between us was a spilled open box of saltine crackers, and two open tins of sardines. Dad called it our "guy time." Sometimes we would switch out to kippers. Back then, kippers were a hard item to find in the United...

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 13

PLAN/PURCHASE
8 oz sardines in olive oil, 2 tins
2 oz cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp mayonnaise, plain variety
1 tsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 dash(es) hot sauce, i prefer frank's
salt, kosher variety, to taste
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste
ADDITIONAL ITEMS
saltine crackers, or toast points
OPTIONAL ITEMS
1 - 2 pinch dried tarragon or crushed fennel
replace the salt and pepper with a few shakes of lemon/pepper spice

Steps:

  • 1. PREP/PREPARE
  • 2. My favorite tin of sardines is Wild Planet, packed in extra virgin olive oil and a bit of lemon. If you want to cut back on the oil, you can always go with the ones packed in water, they are both great tasting, and sustainably caught in the cold waters of the North Pacific. FYI: Sardines are high in omega 3 oils, and that is a good thing.
  • 3. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
  • 4. Mix all of the ingredients together in a non-reactive bowl (like glass), cover and place into the fridge for an hour or two.
  • 5. PLATE/PRESENT
  • 6. Serve on crackers or toast points. Enjoy.
  • 7. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
