Yield About 3 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces smoked trout fillets (see note)
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
3/4 cup (firmly packed) coarsely chopped fresh basil leaves
3 to 4 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
7 whole scallions, chopped, or 1/3 cup (firmly packed) sliced chives
2 plum tomatoes
Crackers or sliced cucumber, for serving

Steps:

  • In a food processor, layer the trout, 1 1/2 packages cream cheese, basil and 3 tablespoons horseradish. Add white pepper and scallions or chives. Pulse several times until mixture is roughly blended. Add remaining half-package of cream cheese, and pulse again until mixture is smooth. Taste, and add additional horseradish if needed.
  • Transfer mixture to a wide serving bowl. Halve tomatoes lengthwise and remove seeds. Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch dice and pat dry on paper towels. Fold tomatoes into trout spread. Serve with crackers or slices of cucumber, or refrigerate and use within three days.
