Serve some special smoked salmon
A special night deserves special ingredients and our Collection Scottish Speybay signature smoked salmon, cured in gin and finished with citrus zest and dill for a rich, fresh taste, is perfect for sharing on New Year’s Eve.
Serve it sliced and drizzled in lemon juice for a starter, or layered on top of toasted blinis with a dollop of cream cheese for a party.
