SMOKED SALMON, FROMAGE BLANC AND CAPER SPREAD



Smoked Salmon, Fromage Blanc and Caper Spread image

One selling point of smoked salmon is that you don't need to do much to it to get it on the table - but take it a step further and break out of the canape cliché. Here, you'll whip it up in the food processor with fennel and cream cheese for a light spread. Serve it with baguette slices. It's a quarter-hour of work for a savory, guest-friendly appetizer.
