Smoked Salmon Cheese Dip

I enjoyed a smoked salmon cheese dip like this so much in Anchorage, Alaska that I decided I needed to make it at home… with a few improvements! This is good with crackers, or spread on a slice of sourdough toast and top with a few thin slices of fresh jalapeno pepper.

1. Shred the salmon and smoked cheese into the soft cheese.  Fold together so that flakes of salmon remain in the dip.  If desired, salt and pepper or perhaps a pinch of crushed red pepper may be added.
