Description
A delicious appetizer featuring crispy bagel rounds topped with smoked salmon and creamy dressing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
- ½ teaspoon black sesame seeds
- ½ teaspoon white sesame seeds
- ½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 everything or plain bagel, (cut into rounds)
- 8 ounces Gaspe Nova smoked salmon, (finely chopped)
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons minced shallot
- 1 tablespoon finely diced chives, (divided)
- 1 tablespoon creme fraiche
- 1 teaspoon diced fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). In a small bowl stir together the poppy seeds, sesame seeds, salt, onion powder and garlic powder then set aside.
- Add olive oil to a shallow bowl. Dip one side of each bagel round in the olive oil and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of the everything bagel seasoning mixture evenly over the top. Bake the rounds until they are crisp, about 16 minutes.
- Let cool completely and store in an airtight container until ready to use.
- In a medium bowl stir together the salmon, olive oil, shallot and half the chives.
- Use a 3” cookie cutter or biscuit cutter and pile the salmon inside to shape it. Carefully lift the cookie cutter off the salmon.
- Top with the creme fraiche, remaining chives, dill and lemon zest. Serve with the bagel crisps on the side.
Notes
- Ensure that the bagel rounds are crisp for the best texture.
- Can substitute creme fraiche with sour cream if needed.
