Enjoy smoked salmon and strawberries this Wimbledon season

As the second week of Wimbledon gets underway and all attention is geared towards this weekend’s finals, we’ve collected a selection of smoked salmon and strawberry recipes for you to create and enjoy while you’re watching at home.

Wimbledon may be traditionally known for its strawberries and champagne, but strawberries go perfectly with smoked salmon as well.

Smoked salmon and strawberries

It may sound a little unusual but the sweetness of the strawberries combines perfectly with the saltiness of the smoked salmon, making it a light, flavoursome dish that’s perfect for this time of year.

From BBC Good Food, try this Smoked Salmon, Strawberry and Fennel Salad recipe. Mix John Ross Jr smoked salmon torn into strips with fennel and rocket, and add an easy-to-make light summery honey and mustard dressing.

For a dish with a slight kick to it, try this very simple Strawberries with Smoked Salmon and Cracked Pepper recipe from Sweet Eve. If you buy John Ross Jr smoked salmon with cracked black pepper, there’s no need to buy any additional pepper.

If you like quinoa then this Hot Smoked Salmon, Strawberry and Quinoa Salad from Because Food is Life is packed full of nutrients and includes pickled strawberries, which tend to be a little less sweet than the fresh variety.

Or you can add in avocado and enjoy this Smoked Salmon with Strawberries and Avocado recipe from Town and Country Markets. You can adapt the recipe to suit your taste and include pine nuts or croutons for that little extra crunch.

Our traditional smoked salmon comes in a variety of pack sizes. Order a selection online or call into your local branch of Waitrose.
