Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 package cream cheese, softened at room temperature
1 cup chopped fresh herbs: chives, dill and scallions
1 medium-length cucumber
1/2 pound smoked salmon, sliced thinly
1 package flour tortillas

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix cream cheese with chopped herbs and set aside. Slice cucumber very thinly lengthwise using a mandolin or very sharp knife. Spread 3/4 of a tortilla with a layer of the cream cheese mixture (this way the spread won't ooze out when you roll it). With the uncovered portion at the top, arrange a layer of cucumber slices vertically from the bottom edge of the tortilla and then a layer of salmon slices horizontally. Roll tightly. (Use a sushi mat if you own one.) Chill, seam side down, covered with a slightly damp paper towel and plastic wrap. When ready to serve, cut on the bias in 1 1/2-inch slices, discarding uneven ends, and arrange on a serving platter.

SMOKED SALMON WRAP

My favorite breakfast/lunch restaurant serves this tasty wrap. It's really HUGE, and I always share with my girlfriend, or bring the other half home. Here's my version, in single servings for two, or just make one, and save the rest of the salmon for another day! I'm so hooked on this wrap, I started making it at home for...

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 8 inch spinach tortillas
whipped cream cheese
generous amount of red onion, slivered
1 tsp capers, or to taste, on each wrap
very thin slices of cucumber, skin on
a thick layer of baby spinach
3 oz package, sliced and ready to eat, smoked salmon, divided

Steps:

  • 1. With a knife, spread a thick layer of cream cheese, in the center of the tortilla, leaving room at the bottom to fold up, and sides in.
  • 2. Now layer in order, on top of cream cheese, red onions, capers, cucumbers, spinach. Top with half of the sliced smoked salmon.
  • 3. Fold the bottom of the tortilla up, and the sides in. Secure with a toothpick. It's not the prettiest presentation, but it surely tastes delicious! Enjoy!
  • 4. Feel free to add more, or less, of any of the ingredients. But to me, this hits the spot! The salmon is rich, and I can only eat one wrap. But I know there are others with a larger appetite than mine, so enjoy just one wrap, or both!

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Smoked Salmon: Opt for high-quality smoked salmon that is firm, moist, and has a vibrant color. Look for options that are sustainably sourced and minimally processed.
  • Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and chop the vegetables according to the recipe's instructions. Use a sharp knife to ensure clean and even cuts.
  • Spread Cream Cheese Evenly: When spreading cream cheese on the tortilla, ensure it is evenly distributed, leaving a small border around the edges. This prevents the filling from spilling out.
  • Add Flavorful Herbs: Enhance the flavors in your wrap by incorporating fresh herbs like dill, chives, or parsley. These herbs complement the smoked salmon well and add a refreshing touch.
  • Roll and Wrap Tightly: Roll the tortilla tightly, starting from one side and working your way to the other. Wrap it securely in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to keep it intact.
  • Chill Before Slicing: After rolling the wrap, refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight. Chilling allows the flavors to meld and makes it easier to slice into neat and clean pieces.

Conclusion:

Smoked salmon wraps are a versatile and delicious meal option that offers a perfect balance of flavors and textures. Experiment with different fillings and combinations to create wraps that suit your preferences. Whether you enjoy them for breakfast, lunch, or as a light dinner, these wraps are sure to satisfy your taste buds. Get creative and explore the endless possibilities of this culinary delight!
