Smoked Salmon Cucumber Bites Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the sesame seeds, poppy seeds, onion flakes, garlic flakes, black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt; set aside.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the sour cream, minced dill, lemon zest and remaining 1 teaspoon sea salt; set aside.
• With a peeler, stripe the cucumber, running the peeler from one tip to the other, leaving a small strip of skin in between each peel. Using a mandoline or knife, slice the cucumber on the bias into 1/4-inch slices. Slice the salmon into 2-inch strips.
• Lay out the cucumber slices on a platter. Place about 1/2 teaspoon of the sour cream mixture on each cucumber. Ripple or fold the strips of smoked salmon and place on top of the sour cream mixture. Garnish with dill sprigs and sprinkle with the seasoning mix before serving.

Steps:

• Trim ends from cucumbers and cut crosswise into 24 (3/4-inch-thick) rounds. Scoop a 1/2-inch-deep depression from one side of each round with a small melon-baller, forming little cups. Drain cucumbers, cup sides down, on paper towels for 15 minutes.
• Beat cream cheese, chopped dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, and black pepper together in a bowl. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon cheese mixture into each cucumber cup. Top each cup with 1 salmon strip and 1 dill sprig.

Steps:

• Beat the cream cheese, heavy cream and mustard in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Combine the salmon and onions in a small bowl.
• Cut the cucumber crosswise into 1/3-inch rounds. Scoop 1/2 teaspoon cream cheese mixture onto each radish slice and place it on a piece of cucumber, cream cheese-side down, pressing lightly. Top with a small sprig of dill, followed by 1/2 teaspoon salmon mixture.
