You goyim are so barbaric.

Smoked salmon, cream cheese, bagel. Repeat. :9

On edit: forgot the -im suffix was plural.

[Midlodemocrat]

5. With onions and capers. Oh, wow, I'm hungry.

Onions and capers - hell yes.

I might just have to knock off work and hit a deli...

[northzax]

17. Yep, same here

Smoked salmon, cream cheese and bagels are some of the finer things in life, IMO. Yum!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

13. Preferably an onion and garlic bagel

mmmmmmmmmmmm

Call me goyette.

[Meatwad]

3. I like it plain!

mmmmm...

[Richard Steele]

31. Yeah, if it's good salmon it's worth eating alone!

Just a pinch between my cheek and gum, to savor that flavor!

[RebelOne]

33. It's also good eaten alone with a horseradish spread.

[Whoa_Nelly]

10. Dressed up and

in a fancy restuarant as someone's guest

[Metta]

11. Bagels or in eggs.

With lettuce, tomato, onion and an olive/anchovy/garlic tapenade and with sauteed onions, garlic, spinach, corn and hot peppers.

[Tyrone Slothrop]

14. That sounds delicious

I usually just have it on a bagel, but I recently found smoked salmon ravioli at the specialty foods store I shop at.

Haven't gotten any yet, though. I need to figure out a good complement for the sauce/ingredients first.

On edit: I'm thinking maybe a vodka sauce with snow pea pods, black olives and goat cheese crumbles. Unless anyone has any better suggestions, hmmm???

[Left Is Write]

15. With cream cheese, crackers, and fruit.

[Shell Beau]

16. Option 1 or option 3 sound delish!

[Skidmore]

18. I know what I'm making for dinner Saturday. Thanks.

I'll try it with ziti though. I bought a ton of ziti at Coscos last month.

[youthere]

20. I think it would be equally excellent with ziti...

or with penne too. It was AWESOME.

[Lethe]

19. share it with a bear

they like salmon too, it's nice to share

[uppityperson]

22. On a plate, with your fingers, at a picnic in Alaska

[chaska]

23. the way flies do it, by regurgitating on it and then slurping it back up.

[Tallison]

25. On bread with goat cheese and capers

Yummy!!!

[pokerfan]

26. Nothing too fancy cause I like to taste the salmon

Rye bread, a little butter, some lime, fresh ground pepper. Parsley dill or chopped onion is also good.

[fortyfeetunder]

27. Eat it with?

I eat salmon like an orca. It doesn't have time to be accompanied with anything!

(but my favorite is cream cheese, lox and a whole wheat bagel).

[Floogeldy]

28. With a fork.

:)

[PittPoliSci]

29. raw

[cleofus1]

30. classically?

with seal oil and some moose jerky and greens

[Awsi Dooger]

32. I cook salmon in the broiler

5 or 6 minutes on each side, on top of aluminum foil. Comes out awesome.

Parmesan cheese on salmon? That's like covering the Playmate of the Year with dog shit.

[Cats Against Frist]

34. I don't like the chunky smoked salmon

You know -- the kind with the tuna texture -- but I LOVE nova lox and gravlax. Homemade gravlax is the A-1 best, on a garlic bagel with plain cream cheese.

My MIL makes this appetizer out of nova lox that will get you laid/promoted/invited back if you're to bring it to a social function. And there's no cooking involved. Here's how you make it:

Ingredients:

Potato Lefsa
Lox cream cheese
Nova Lox
Cilantro


Take the lefsa, and lay it out -- it's a giant circle, and cut it into strips that are about 2.5 to 3 inches wide. Then, cut the strips into thirds -- or halves, depending on how you like your lefsa-to-filling ratio. Then, spread one side of the lefsa with the lox cream cheese, hit it with a chunk of lox, and a couple little sprigs of cilantro, trimmed to the same width as the roll, and roll the little sucker up. Make 40 or so of them. Sneak about five, when you're making them. Take them to a party. Reap the social benefits.

35. Not with your nose. That's for sure.

It gets hard to breathe eventually.

36. With scrambled eggs (salt, lots of pepper and a little parsley)

and warm, fresh Soda Bread smothered in butter.
