This is my go-to recipe for a quick app that keeps well and is well received. It’s made with canned salmon, cream cheese, and horseradish. On crackers or bagels, it tastes fantastic.

Reviews
Well this was a bit problematic with the cooking process. By searing the delicate scallops and then basically poaching them in wine ; it erased my sear. Dang it! The quick sauté time of the shallot and onion left them very strong. With some changes this could be very delicious.
