Smoked Bluefish Spread
While I was growing up, we spent summers on Block Island, Rhode Island, where we would surf-cast off the shores for bluefish. Its strong flavor makes the fish a perfect candidate for smoking. This is a snack that brings back memories of warm summer afternoons and cool ocean breezes. —Pamela Gelsomini, Wrentham, Massachusetts
