Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings (16 puffs)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 ounces hot-smoked salmon
1/4 cup whipped cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 teaspoon roughly chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 1/2 teaspoons roughly chopped chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for rolling the dough
One 8-ounce can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 pieces)
4 to 5 medium asparagus spears, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Put the smoked salmon in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon zest, dill, hot sauce, smoked paprika and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the chives. Blend until the mixture is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles, following the perforations. Cut each triangle in half lengthwise to make 2 thin triangles. Starting at the wide end of a triangle piece, spread 1 1/2 teaspoons of the smoked salmon mixture toward the tip. Place a piece of asparagus about 1/4 inch from the bottom of the dough's wide end, then roll up towards the tip. Place on the baking sheet with the tip of the roll-up flat on the baking sheet. Repeat with all the dough.
  • Lightly whisk the egg with 1/2 teaspoon water. Brush the egg wash over each puff, then sprinkle some of the remaining chives over each. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.

SMOKED SALMON PUFFS

These little bites look impressive, but they aren't hard or expensive. Because the cream cheese filling is so flavorful, you need only a small amount of smoked salmon. The pastry can be baked ahead (and even frozen for up to a month).

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h30m

Yield about 40 puffs (10 to 12 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 9-ounce sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil)
1 Kirby cucumber or 1/4 English cucumber
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons finely sliced chives
Kosher salt
2 ounces smoked salmon
1/2 teaspoon black sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  • Unfold the pastry, and cut out rounds with a 1 1/2-inch round cookie cutter (you should get roughly 40). Space them at least 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly score the center of each round with a 3/4-inch cookie cutter (don't press all the way through). Lightly brush each round with the egg.
  • Invert another rimmed baking sheet on top of the dough rounds, and bake for 5 minutes. (Covering the rounds helps them puff straight up evenly.) Remove the top baking sheet, and continue to bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let the rounds cool completely on the baking sheet, then use the handle of a wooden spoon to gently punch a hole in the middle of each round. (The baked pastry can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 1 day or frozen for up to 1 month.)
  • Meanwhile, microwave the vinegar and sun-dried tomatoes in a small bowl, covered, for 30 seconds; let cool. Reserve 1 teaspoon of the vinegar, and finely chop the tomatoes. Finely shred the cucumber, and squeeze out all the excess moisture. Mash together the tomatoes, reserved vinegar, shredded cucumber, cream cheese, chives and 1/4 teaspoon salt with a fork in a medium bowl until smooth. Transfer the cream cheese filling to a pastry bag or resealable plastic bag (cut off the tip). (The filling can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.)
  • Tear or cut the salmon into 40 small pieces, and roll each into a rough rosette shape. Pipe some of the filling into each puff. Top each with a piece of salmon, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. (The salmon puffs can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours.)

SMOKED SALMON PUFFS



Smoked Salmon Puffs image

Smoked salmon puffs are tasty bites perfect for any occasion, whether it is a New Year's party, dinner party or family gathering.

Provided by Julia | Appetizer Addiction

Categories     All Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 Sheet Puff Pastry, thawed, see note 1
3 ounces Smoked Salmon (90 grams)
1/2 cup Cream Cheese
1/3 cup Finely Chopped Fresh Chives, see note 2
Splash of Lemon Juice
A pinch of Black Pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to a temperature that is stated on your puff pastry packaging.
  • Roll out the pastry (if not using the pre-rolled one). Use a small round cookie cutter to cut as many circles as you can. Place them onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment (or a silicone mat).
  • Bake them until puffed and golden brown on top (please read the puff pastry package instructions for cooking time but keep an eye on them as they can be ready quicker than that).
  • Meanwhile: in a food processor, combine smoked salmon, cream cheese, chives, lemon juice and black pepper. Pulse until you get a smooth-ish mixture. Set aside.
  • When the puffs are ready, take them out and let them cool down completely. Take each puff and using a knife open them up (like a shell). Fill one part of it with about a teaspoon of the mixture and put the other part back on the top. Continue until you have used up all the mixture.
  • Enjoy!

remembering bagels but in a fancy fingerfoodish way...

5 eggs
125ml milk
125ml water
100g butter
