Add the smoked salmon, fresh dill, and capers to the food processor. Pulse a few times until the salmon is blended but still slightly chunky for texture.
Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl.
If using, sprinkle the top with green onions for garnish.
Serve immediately with crackers, sliced baguette, fresh vegetables, or as a spread for bagels. Optionally, refrigerate for up to an hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
