Rillettes are one of those impossibly tasty cracker toppings. Here, cooked salmon soaks in wine and crème fraîche for a treat that's sure to disappear fast.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Combine wine, shallot, and peppercorns in a shallow saucepan. Simmer until shallots are tender, 5 to ⏱️ 6 minutes. Add skinless salmon and gently simmer until nearly opaque throughout, 3 to ⏱️ 4 minutes. Immediately transfer to a paper towel–lined plate (salmon will keep cooking). Strain liquid, reserving shallots but discarding peppercorns. Chill salmon and shallots until cool.
2
Whisk together crème fraîche, mayonnaise, and lemon zest and juice in a bowl. Gently fold in poached salmon, shallots, smoked salmon, and chives. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with crackers.
Crackers, for serving
