Notes

  • With chili. Some heat goes so well with fatty fish. Dice one whole mild/medium chili into tiny pieces and sprinkle on top. Remove the seeds.
  • With onions. Leek goes well in this recipe. You can mix ¼ diced leek with the sour cream.
  • Russian version. This version has one pickle added in small dice to the sour cream, 2 tablespoon of honey, and one garlic clove.
  • Milk free. There are also plant-based oat or soy sour cream alternatives.
