Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Bagel (#180)

“There is no breakfast more satisfying, more effortless, and more right than a smoked salmon bagel done properly. The ratio matters: generous cream cheese, proper smoked salmon, thin red onion, capers. Done.”

What You’ll Need

• 2 plain or sesame bagels
• 4 tbsp cream cheese
• 100g smoked salmon
• ½ small red onion, very thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp capers
• Fresh dill
• Lemon wedge
• Black pepper

Let’s Cook — Step by Step

1. Step 1 — Slice and toast the bagels until golden.
2. Step 2 — Spread each half generously with cream cheese — more than you think.
3. Step 3 — Layer smoked salmon on the bottom half.
4. Step 4 — Add thin red onion slices and capers.
5. Step 5 — Finish with dill and a crack of black pepper.
6. Step 6 — Squeeze lemon over the salmon.
7. Step 7 — Press the top half down.

Kitchen Tip: Slice the red onion as thin as possible — thin enough to be translucent. A mandoline is useful here.
