Recipe FAQ

What are your favorite dairy-free cream cheeses?

My favorite dairy-free cream cheeses are the Violife and Miyoko’s brands.

Is this recipe low histamine?

This recipe can be low histamine depending on a variety of factors. If you choose a cream cheese that has lower histamine ingredients it can be made lower histamine. If the salmon is frozen and cooked immediately versus sitting in the fridge for days, this can be another way to ensure the food is lower histamine. It also depends on if you are able to tolerate coconut aminos. The lowest histamine brand I have found is Bragg’s. It is not fermented, but it does contain apple cider vinegar.

Is this recipe nut-free?

This recipe can be nut-free if you ensure all of the ingredients you are using are nut-free.

Storage

I recommend eating these bites immediately upon assembly! The salmon can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
