In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice until smooth. (2 minutes)

Stir in the chopped scallion, capers, and fresh dill. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. (1 minute)

03

Gently fold in the flaked salmon, being careful not to overmix, until just combined. (1 minute)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes.
