Salmon & Garnish

Method

Bruschetta Bases

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the bread into 1/2-inch thick slices.

  2. 2

    Lightly brush both sides with olive oil and rub a cut garlic clove over each slice.

  3. 3

    Bake on a sheet until edges are golden and centers are crisp, about 8-10 minutes. Remove and cool slightly.

Mascarpone & Preserved Lemon Spread

  1. 4

    In a bowl, blend mascarpone with minced preserved lemon, lemon juice, and pepper until smooth.

  2. 5

    Taste and adjust seasoning with more preserved lemon or pepper as desired.

Assemble & Finish

  1. 6

    Spread a generous layer of the mascarpone mixture on each warm bruschetta slice.

  2. 7

    Top with a slice of house-smoked salmon.

  3. 8

    Garnish with chopped dill, chopped chives, and optional capers. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

  4. 9

    Arrange on a board with cucumber ribbons for color and crunch.
