Ingredients
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry thawed but still cold
- 4 oz cream cheese softened at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions plus more for garnish
- 2 teaspoons finely minced fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons capers drained and rinsed
- 5 oz smoked salmon or lox
Notes
- Keep the puff pastry cold. It consists of layers of dough separated by butter. The butter should be intact when baking so it turns into steam, creating pockets of air and causing the layers to puff up and create crisp flakes.
- Handle the puff pastry dough with care. Flour the surface so it does not stick when you roll and make sure to not overwork it.
- Taste the cream cheese mixture before spreading it on the pastry. Adjust the amounts of scallions, capers, lemon, parsley, salt, and pepper according to your preferences.
- Prickling the puff pastry dough will allow steam to escape, preventing it from puffing too much and creating an excessively airy or unstable structure. This will result in a crisp and golden finish.
- Make sure the puff pastry tart shell is cooled completely before spreading the cream cheese mixture on top so it doesn't melt.
- Distribute the salmon evenly on top of the cream cheese mixture to ensure each slice gets the same amount.
