Smoked Salmon Crostini
Report
Super easy Smoked Salmon Crostini made with a 5 minutes smoked salmon pate with a hint of horseradish and lemon zest. It's spread on thick slices of char-grilled toasted bread and topped with caper berries and chives. It's elegant, easy and best of all delicious!

Instructions
- Put all ingredients in a food processor and blitz until it forms a medium to smooth pate. Set aside.
- Drizzle each slice of bread lightly with olive oil and chargrill the slices of bread on both sides or you can toast it as you normally would.
- Let the bread cool after toasting then spread with the salmon pate. Top with chopped chives, a few capers and more black pepper, serve.
Notes
- Salmon - use a good quality smoked salmon if possible.
- Consistency - if your pate is too thick you can thin it out with a little more heavy cream. I like to add 1 tbsp at a time with the food processor running until I get the perfect consistency.
- Herbs - I love to top my smoked salmon crostini with freshly cut chives but you could also use fennel tops (fronds), finely chopped parsley or dill.
- Seasoning - there's no need to add any salt to the pate because the salmon is already well seasoned, I only add black pepper.
- Bread - I used a rye sourdough bread because the flavour goes so well with smoked salmon but ciabatta or any crusty bread will also work really well.
- Storage - can be made 1-2 days in advance and stored in the fridge covered in plastic wrap.
