Ingredients
- 4 ounces smoked salmon
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon fresh dill chopped

Instructions
- Blend softened cream cheese with chopped dill and lemon juice.
- Spread each slice of bread with a thin layer of butter, then a thicker layer of cream cheese.
- Place a layer of smoked salmon on top of the bread. Don't worry about getting to close to the edge since you'll be trimming the crusts.
- If not serving right away, cover with plastic wrap and a damp cloth and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Slice off crusts and cut sandwiches into fingers or triangles. Garnish with a caper and a small sprig of dill.
