This is a great little appetizer to start things off!

This sounds wonderful. I'll be taking this to a potluck in a couple of days..... I'll post back later how it all came together and how the PUPU (Hawaiian for appetizer) whet over! I'll rate this at 5 stars to start with just because it sounds so yummy! Well I fixed this for a potluck last night. I found it difficult to clean the pulp out of the cherry tomatoes and very time consuming. I tried to mince the salmon into as small a chunks as possible but it still wasn't fine enough to go through the biggest tip of my pastry bag. I ended up using a plastic bag with a corner cut off. I did use a about 4oz. of salmon as that was what was in the jar and used about 1/4tsp of black pepper. The taste was mild and I think next time I would spice them up a bit with finely chopped olives, jalapeno, and a 1/2tsp of salt. This would be great as a vegetable dip if you didn't want to mess with all those little tomatoes! I'm lowering it to 4 stars because of the prep time.
Read MoreI gave this 3 stars for the idea, but read the reviews and could tell the mousse would be a little shy on flavor. So I took the tomato idea and ran with it. I have posted what I did as Smoked Salmon mousse tomato tartlet's. Brought them to a party and they were a big hit.

These were fantastic the filling is delicous. yes the gutting of the tomatoes is messy and time consuming but it is well worth it.
I thought they were wonderful. However, I made them for a party and nobody touched them. Maybe if you take them to a baby or bridal shower as opposed to a cook out, they would be more well received. :( Lesson learned....know your audience!
creamy,soft,did the mousse overnight and added just a bit of onion for more flavoring.
tastes great with an extra helping of pepper. but beware, your salmon topping will not be orange (like the photoshopped picture), it will be off-white.
I upped the ratio of salmon to cream cheese and substituted plain Greek yogurt for the heavy cream- it was absolutely delicious.
this was awesome. loved by everyone. I garnished with chives and caperes
