appetizerSmoked Salmon Appetizer
These delicious little squares are such a fun afternoon snack and they make for such a good appetizer! Try them and please let me know what you think! (Someone wants to say hello! See the second picture.) 🩷
Alexa AuriIngredients
- 5 Triscut crackers
- Cream cheese
- Smoked salmon
- 1 Mini cucumber sliced
- Everything But The Bagel seasoning
Instructions
- 1Place Triscut crackers into a plate. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on top of each.
- 2Then, pull apart the smoked salmon slices. Arrange onto the crackers neatly.
- 3Wash the cucumber and then slice thinly... OR... WHAT I WOULD RECOMMEND When I made this recipe (see the picture I took for the cover page of this recipe), I cut the cucumber into square-ish triangle shapes. You can cut them into little squares/triangles as I did, but I would recommend cutting the cucumber into thinner slices because it looks nicer!
- 4Arrange the cucumber on top of the smoked salmon. Then, sprinkle a pinch of the seasoning on top of the cucumber.
- 5Serve and enjoy!

Open in Pepper →A Package Of Smoked Salmon Goes Far
Smoked salmon is already cooked and already seasoned, which means half your dinner is done before you turn on the stove. One package can stretch into a pasta, a bowl of rice, or a plate of snacks set out while everybody hovers in the kitchen.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these when folks are coming over and there's no time to fuss, or on a Tuesday when eggs and a little salmon have to be supper.
Every recipe here leans on that one ingredient: the Smoked Salmon Appetizer on Triscuit crackers with cream cheese, Smoked Salmon Vodka Pasta, a rice bowl with mirin, a dill frittata, deviled eggs, sushi rolls, salmon rolls with goat cheese, a cream cheese board, and two ways to smoke your own.
Quick Tips
- 1
Add salmon off the heat
Stir smoked salmon into hot pasta or eggs after the pan comes off the burner so it warms through in about 1 minute without turning dry.
- 2
Soften the cream cheese
Set the block on the counter 30 minutes before you spread it; cold cream cheese tears crackers and won't whip smooth.
- 3
Slice against the grain
Cut smoked salmon on a slight angle into thin ribbons, about 1/4 inch wide, so it drapes over rice or rolls instead of clumping.
- 4
Brighten it with lemon
A squeeze of juice from 1 lemon or a spoonful of fresh dill cuts the salt and richness in boards, frittatas, and deviled eggs.
