Tip: Throw in some capers if you really want to recreate all the flavors of your favorite bagel! What should I serve it with? While we love this smoked salmon dip spread on all the bagels, your options don’t stop there. Serve it with crackers, crudités and veggies for a satisfying party appetizer, or even spread it on top of your latkes for an extra-savory breakfast! Can I make this ahead? You can make this dish a few days ahead of time, but you won’t want to make it too far in advance to avoid getting an overly-strong dip. When you’re ready to serve, give it a good mix to make sure it hasn’t firmed up too much! How should I store it? If you have any leftovers, store this dip in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. It’s best eaten fresh, so get to munching on those leftovers ASAP! Made it?
