This appetizer is well suited for any occasion and very easy to prepare. The canapes look very sophisticated and taste really good too. The delicate flavor of the smoked salmon is enhanced and balanced by the sour and tangy lemon taste of the topping spread.
Ingredients (all quantities are variable according to how many people you want to feed)
Mascarpone and cream cheese
Smoked salmon
Lemon
Capers
Water crackers
Freshly ground black pepper
Mix equal parts mascarpone cheese and cream cheese. Add a little freshly ground black pepper and mix until blended. Cut a small lemon into paper thin slices, including a thin slice of rind. Spread the cheese mixture onto water crackers. Top with a little sliced smoked salmon and a single slice of lemon. Complete with one or two capers on top.
Wine Tip: Enjoy this appetizer with a glass of chilled dry white wine like Pinot Grigio or even sparkly prosecco while the main course is cooking. Buon appetito!
