Notes
You can use any type of smoked salmon. I enjoy the type that has an herb crusted edge to add a bit more flavor and pizzaz to the presentation.
I love to take a moment to photograph the “mise on place” which is the French term for having all of your ingredients ready for when you begin cooking. I bought this little wooden spoon on our recent trip to Costa Rica!
I loved the way our Trencadis label looked beside this art piece we bought in Barcelona!
