Steps:

• Puree the salmon in a food processor while slowly adding the softened butter and creme fraiche.
• When these ingredients are combined, add the herbs and lemon juice and freshly ground pepper to taste, or about four grinds of the pepper mill. Remove the mixture from the processor, place it in a bowl and refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving. The mousse will harden quickly in the refrigerator, so remove it as soon as it will hold its shape but is still spreadable.
