Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) canned salmon, drained
  • 2 tbsp (30g) fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp (15g) Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup (60g) celery, finely diced
  • 2 tbsp (30g) red onion, minced
  • 1 tbsp (15g) capers, drained
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Dice the celery and red onion into uniform, tiny pieces.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice until the mixture is velvety and smooth.
  3. Add the drained salmon to the bowl. Use a fork to break up any large chunks until the fish is flaked but not mashed.
  4. Using a silicone spatula, gently fold in the diced celery, minced red onion, capers, and chopped dill.
  5. Stir until the salmon is evenly coated and the greens are distributed.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper.
  7. Taste a small amount. If it feels too heavy, add another squeeze of lemon.
  8. Let it sit for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld before serving.
