Follow The Directions

01

Step

Flake the smoked bluefish into smaller pieces and place them in the bowl of a food processor. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the softened cream cheese to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is smooth and well combined. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Incorporate the Dijon mustard and prepared horseradish. Blend to your preferred consistency, tasting and adjusting seasonings as needed. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Transfer the pâté to a serving dish, cover tightly, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. (6+ hours)

For a smoother pâté, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before blending.
Experiment with adding a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of hot sauce for an extra layer of flavor.
Smoked salmon or tuna can be substituted for bluefish.
Serve chilled with an assortment of crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetables.
