Smoked Salmon, Caviar and Cucumber Appetizers Recipe Instructions

Ingredients

• 1/2 lb. Balyk Cut Smoked Salmon<
• 2 English Cucumbers (seedless cucumbers), clean and washed
• 4 oz. Hackleback or Bowfin caviar
• 1/4 cup crème fraiche
• Fresh dill for garnish

Directions

1. Cut off the ends of the cucumber at a 45-degree angle, the slice diagonally into 1/4-inch slices, aiming for 24 slices. 
2. Using a sharp knife, slice the Balyk salmon into ¼ inch thick strips, making as many pieces as cucumber slices. Arrange a piece of salmon on top of the cucumber, add a ½ teaspoon of crème fraiche on the side (see picture). On top of the smoked salmon and crème fraiche place approximately ¼ teaspoon of caviar (do not use any metal instruments with caviar, it affects the taste – use mother of pearl or ceramic utensils). Garnish with a sprig of dill.
