Steps:

• Place wine, shallots and 1 teaspoon of the salt in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the fresh salmon and poach for 40 seconds. Drain in a sieve and run cold water over the fish just to stop the cooking. Drain well and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 1/2 hours. Discard the poaching liquid.
• Place smoked salmon in a large bowl and stir in the chives. Add the poached salmon and use the side of a wooden spoon to shred the salmon as you mix. Stir in the lemon juice, mayonnaise and pepper. Add sea salt to taste.
• Refrigerate up to 6 hours, then serve with toasted baguettes.

Steps:

• In bowl, mash cream cheese with yogurt until smooth.
• Drain salmon and add to bowl (for a more neutral taste, run drained salmon under warm water). Add remaining ingredients, and stir well to mash salmon.
• Serve with crackers or on little squares of thin pumpernickel or rye bread.

Steps:

• Mix 8-ounce package cream cheese, the salmon and onions thoroughly. Shape mixture into a ball. Frost with whipped cream cheese. Sprinkle with nuts.

Steps:

• Process cream cheese in a food processor to soften completely; add salmon, capers, green onion, dill, cream, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, and lemon juice. Process the mixture again until creamy and smooth.
