Made with both poached as well as smoked salmon, these salmon rillettes are an easy-to-make yet elegant spread, with big flavor! They deliver a chunky texture with a rich smoky taste from the salmon, smoothness from crème fraiche and fresh citrusy notes from lemon, dill and pink peppercorns. Serve them at your next dinner party with bread and crackers!
Growing up in Brittany, on the Atlantic coast, sardines were a staple food – coming in fresh every morning from the harbor and sold at the local poissonnier (fish shop), whether in cans or shaped into the region’s beloved Sardine Rillettes. This tasty spread is a fixture of the French apéro (pre-meal drinks and small bites) and doubles as a genuinely nutritious, protein-rich snack any time of year.
