I have a similar recipe, but I call it a (smoked salmon) mousse. It
comes down to whipping up cream untill it's very thick (just a bit
before it turns to butter). Mash up smoked salmon (cuttings,
leftovers) very finely (use a food processor) and lightly mix the
cream and salmon toghether. Finish off with a good squeeze of lemon
juice to make it taste fresher and add loads and loads of freshly
ground black pepper.

The measures, as always with my recipes, are to taste, but i'd say
volume cream:volume salmon should be about 2:1.
