SMOKED SALMON AND EGG SALAD TARTINES
Steps:
- Place the eggs in a large pot and cover them with cool tap water. Bring the water to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the eggs to sit in the water for another 5 minutes. Drain, then fill the pot with cold water. To peel the eggs, tap each end on a board, then roll the egg between your hand and the board to crackle the shell. Peel under running tap water and allow the eggs to cool to room temperature.
- Place the eggs in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Pulse the processor 10 to 12 times to break up, but not puree, the eggs. Transfer the chopped eggs to a bowl and add the mayonnaise, mustard, dill, salt, and pepper. Combine lightly with a fork.
- Toast or grill the bread. Lay 1 slice of salmon on each piece of bread, spread on the egg salad, then garnish with a sprig of dill. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil the eggs for exactly 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit 10 more minute before draining. Run under cold water and peel the eggs immediately - the shell will come off much more easily while the eggs are still wet and warm.
- Using a box grater, grate the eggs on the shredder side into a bowl. Add the salmon, dill, capers, 1/4 cup of the mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Lay out 7 slices of the bread and spread 1/4 cup of the egg salad onto each slice. Cover with the remaining bread slices. Trim the crust off of all the sandwiches and cut each sandwich crosswise into four triangles.
- Spread the long side of each triangle with a little mayonnaise and dip each one into the chopped chives. Arrange decoratively on a platter.

Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality smoked salmon. Look for salmon that is firm and has a deep pink color.
- If you don't have access to smoked salmon, you can use regular salmon. Just cook it according to the package directions before flaking it.
- Use fresh eggs for the egg salad. Older eggs will not have as good a flavor or texture.
- Chop the vegetables and herbs finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the salad.
- Season the salad to taste with salt, pepper, and mayonnaise. You can also add other seasonings, such as dill, chives, or lemon juice.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
