Smoked Bluefish Pate - Grand Concourse

#143       Comment on this recipe.

Pre-Notes

It has been difficult to find Smoked Bluefish in Pittsburgh. I have substitued Smoked Whitefish with good results.

Be very careful to get all of the bones out of the fish.

Ingredients

1. 1 lb smoked bluefish
2. 1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese, softened
3. 2 oz margarine, room temperature
4. 1/4 c heavy cream
5. 1 T prepared white horseradish
6. 1/8 t Tabasco Sauce
7. chopped fresh parsley for garnish
8. crackers or breadsticks for serving

Instructions

1. Skin and bone the bluefish (Be very careful to get all of the bones out, they are white and very fine and can be mistaken for the flesh of the fish.)
2. Mix the fish, cream cheese, margarine, cream, horseradish, and Tabasco Sauce together with an electric mixer, until smooth.
3. Place in a small bowl or crock. Smooth the surface with a hot knife.
4. Garnish with parsley.
5. Serve with crackers or breadsticks.
