Bagels

Caramelized Onion Cream Cheese

Honey Cream Cheese

Strawberry Rhubarb Jam

Sliced Avocado

Hard Boiled Eggs

Cured Salmon

House Cured Pickles

Tomato Slices

Method

Preparation of Bagels

  1. 1

    Toast the Bagels

    Slice the bagels in half and toast them until golden brown. Set aside.

Caramelized Onion Cream Cheese

  1. 2

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 3

    Mix Cream Cheese

    Once the onions are ready, allow them to cool slightly. In a bowl, combine cream cheese with the caramelized onions and mix well until smooth.

Honey Cream Cheese

  1. 4

    Prepare Honey Cream Cheese

    In a separate bowl, mix the cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Hard Boiled Eggs

  1. 5

    Boil the Eggs

    Place eggs in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and turn off the heat. Let sit for 12 minutes. Remove eggs, cool, and peel.

  2. 6

    Slice the Eggs

    Once peeled, slice the hard boiled eggs into quarters.

House Cured Pickles

  1. 7

    Prepare the Pickles

    Slice the cucumbers into spears or rounds. In a large jar, combine salt, vinegar, water, sugar, and dill. Add the cucumbers, seal the jar, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before using.

Sliced Avocado

  1. 8

    Slice the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into thin wedges.

Assembly

  1. 9

    Assemble the Bagel Board

    On a large wooden board or platter, arrange the toasted bagels, caramelized onion cream cheese, honey cream cheese, strawberry rhubarb jam, sliced avocado, hard boiled egg quarters, cured salmon, house cured pickles, and tomato slices. Serve immediately.
