There?s nothing like a relaxing few days at the cabin on the river. A fire in the fireplace, a good Manhattan and the company of a few good fishing buddies. On our outings one of the gourmet treats we always share is this, our favorite cracker spread. I hope you enjoy?
Living in Minnesota, I do not get a chance to go fishing for salmon.
Here is my homemade verision of Smoke Salmon Spread…it is Super Duper when your “Putin on a the Ritz”!
I can of Sockeye Salmon,(remove skin and bones from the salmon pieces)
Green Onion Tops, sliced.
Mayonaise (to taste)
Liquid Smoke (couple of splashes, again to taste)
Ritz Crackers for spread on the Smoke Salmon Spread. I always use Ritz Crackers, remembering Fred Astaire dancing and singing to Irving Berlin’s wonder song… “PUTTIN ON THE RITZ”!
[i]Have you seen the well-to-do up and down Park Avenue
On that famous thoroughfare with their noses in the air
High hats and Arrow collars, white spats and lots of dollars
Spending every dime for a wonderful time
If you’re blue and you don’t know where to go to
Why don’t you go where fashion sits
Puttin’ on the Ritz
Diff’rent types who wear a day coat, pants with stripes
And cutaway coat, perfect fits
Puttin’ on the Ritz
Dressed up like a million dollar trouper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super duper
Come let’s mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks
Or “um-ber-ellas” in their mitts
Puttin’ on the Ritz
Strolling down the avenue so happy
All dressed up just like an English chappie
Very snappy
You’ll declare it’s simply “top-thing” to be there
And hear them swapping smart tidbits
Puttin’ on the Ritz[/i]
If you want, go to You Tube and see Fred Astaire, or Gene Wilders verison of, “Puttin on the Ritz”
Archives are not updated for “Whats Cooking…”
Here is the url for Tom Deschaine’s “Smoked Salmon Spread”, which is “Super duper” when it “Puttin on the Ritz”! ~Parnelli 
That is the URL at the start of this thread…
Also if you go to any new what’s cooking and follow the breadcrumbs back a directory you will see all articles contain a link to the OLD archive pages as well as a link to the BB that shows just the conversation threads (and links) to those articles (like all the newer what’s cooking).
