Ingredients

  • ½ red onion small, very thinly sliced
  • ⅔ cup white wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup olive oil plus more for drizzling
  • 2 tablespoons capers rinsed and patted very dry
  • 8 lices bread from a seeded medium sized loaf

  • salt Kosher salt and freshly cracked, to taste
  • black pepper Kosher salt and freshly cracked, to taste
  • ½ pound smoked salmon
  • 2 tablespoons chives chopped fresh
  • 2 tablespoons dill chopped, fresh
  • 2 tablespoons thyme chopped fresh

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Toss onion and vinegar in a small bowl; let stand at least 1 hour to pickle.
  2. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, fry capers until burst and crisp, about 30 seconds. Drain on paper towels
  3. Spread toasts with Boursin cheese and season with salt and pepper. Top with smoked salmon, drained pickled red onions, fried capers, and herbs. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.

Notes

  • Both the onions and capers can be made ahead of time. I keep a jar of homemade pickled onions in my fridge at all times. It adds a nice punch of flavor and color to so many recipes! And the fried capers can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. I toss them on different recipes whenever you need a little salty pop!
