November 8, 2019

Though originally served at our Fall Farm Dinner at Breeden’s Orchard, this dip makes the perfect snack for entertaining, before large meals, or anytime, really.

Ingredients

6 ounces smoked trout fillets

½ cup creme fraiche or sour cream

½ cup cream cheese

3 tablespoons chives or green onion, chopped finely

zest and juice of one lemon

2 tablespoons blackened seasoning

1 tablespoon black benne seeds

dash of your favorite hot sauce

salt and pepper

Preparation

1. Remove skin from trout fillets and place the fish in a medium mixing bowl.

2. Using a fork, break up the trout in the bowl. Add remaining ingredients except for salt and pepper. Mix together with a fork until all ingredients are fully incorporated. Taste before seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve on crackers, bagel chips, or crisp crudité.
