Method

Preparation of Cream Cheese Spread

  1. 1

    Make the Cream Cheese Spread

    In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Toasting the Bread

  1. 2

    Toast the Pumpernickel Bread

    Preheat your toaster or oven to medium-high heat. Place the pumpernickel bread slices in the toaster or on a baking sheet and toast until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Smoked Salmon Toast

    Spread a generous layer of the lemon dill cream cheese on each slice of toasted pumpernickel bread. Top with slices of smoked salmon, a few capers, and thin slices of red onion. Garnish with fresh dill sprigs if desired.
