Smoked Salmon Cucumber Rounds Recipes

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:

• 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:

• Cut cucumber into 24 slices. Use melon baller to scoop out indentation in center of each slice; discard removed centers or reserve for another use. (See tip.)
• Reserve 1 Tbsp. dill. Mix remaining dill with all remaining ingredients until blended.
• Fill cucumbers with cream cheese mixture; sprinkle with reserved dill.

Steps:

• With a fork, score cucumber peel lengthwise; cut into 1/4-in. slices. Pipe or spread cream cheese onto each slice; top with salmon. Sprinkle with chives. Refrigerate until serving.

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.

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese, dill and lemon peel until well blended.
• Slice the cucumber into 48 slices, 1/4 inch thick.
• Cut the salmon into 48 small pieces.
• Top each cucumber with 1 tsp of the cream cheese mixture.
• Roll up smoked salmon pieces and place on cream cheese topped cucumbers.
