Can you share any recipes that use smoked salmon in place of smoked pork (ham, hocks, bacon, etc.) in slow cooking?

Asked by ibstubro (18804points) January 24th, 2016

I recently bought several packages of smoked salmon (the dry kind, not like lox), and I was wondering if I could make ‘Salmon and Beans’ or similar slow cooked wintertime dish.

Flaked smoked salmon would be great on some slow cooked green beans, but I was thinking about a recipe that does more to incorporate the smoked flavor into the dish.

Maybe slow cook with the skin, flake the meat into the finished dish?

I don’t think dried smoked salmon needs cooking does it?

Technically, neither does ham, @cazzie.

I’m looking for recipes that use smoked salmon to impart the flavor usually associated with cooking foods with smoked ham or pork.

A nice green pea soup recipe could be used maybe. Or something like chipped beef replaced with the salmon.

I found “this“_http://www.heywhatsfordinnermom.com/2011/06/alaskan-white-bean-and-smoked-salmon.html, and while it looks great, the smoke flavor isn’t really cooked in.
That may not be possible, so I asked the question to see if anyone knew.

I have a can of Bush’s White Chili Beans (in mild chili sauce) made for white – poultry based – chili. I might try flaking some smoked salmon in those and simmering for a bit. I have a bottle of (real) liquid smoke I can use to kick it up a bit.

In the realm of not-quite-what-you-asked-for-but-maybe-good-anyway, I found this in one of my favorite novelty cookbooks.

You would, naturally, begin with the chunks of fish, not with whole fish.

Smoked Salmon spread which is good with chips or crackers or low-carb Lettuce Wraps with Smoke Salmon

Yeah, the recipes look great, @Seek & @Tropical_Willie, but I’m wondering about recipes that use smoked salmon to impart the smoked flavor to the dish, much like Ham and beans?
