Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix salmon, celery, green pepper, onion, dill, mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon juice until well combined.
- In a sauce pan, melt the cream cheese over medium-low heat. Reduce heat to low, add the tomato soup or tomato sauce and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add several dashes of Tabasco sauce. Pour the cream cheese and tomato soup mixture into the salmon mixture and mix thoroughly.
- Pour the cold water into a small pot and stir in the gelatin. Be sure to use cold water. Gelatin needs this to disperse properly. Slowly heat the water and gelatin just until the gelatin dissolves. Do not boil the gelatin or it will not gel properly.
- Add the dissolved gelatin to the salmon mixture and mix well.
- Pour the mixture into a decorative mold or into serving bowls and refrigerate for 6 hours, or until firm.
- If using a decorative mold, unmold the salmon mousse by placing the bottom of the mold in hot water for a few seconds and turn the mold over onto a large serving dish to release the mousse. The surface of the mousse may appear a bit ragged. If you cover with plastic wrap and re-chill in the refrigerator, it should become smoother.,Refrigerate until ready to serve.,Serve salmon mousse with sliced avocados, celery sticks, lettuce leaves, tomatoes, olives, slices of baguette, and/or crackers.,Did you love the recipe?
