Instructions

Grease a 6-cup fish mold with butter or mayonnaise.
Soften the gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water. Add 1/2 cup boiling water and stir well, until the gelatin has dissolved. Add 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, lime juice, onion, hot sauce, paprika, and 1 teaspoon salt and mix well. Fold in the salmon and capers. Add the whipped cream and continue folding until everything is well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared mold. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
