- Prepare the Ingredients:Start by slicing the cucumber into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Ensure that the slices are even to provide a stable base for the toppings.
- Spread the Cream Cheese:Using a knife or small spoon, spread about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese on each cucumber slice. The cream cheese acts as a rich, creamy layer that pairs perfectly with the smoked salmon.
- Add the Smoked Salmon:Place a bite-sized piece of smoked salmon on top of each cucumber slice. This adds a savory, smoky flavor that is balanced by the freshness of the cucumber.
- Season and Garnish:Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over each slice. This adds a delightful crunch and an extra layer of flavor. Finish by garnishing with fresh dill to bring a hint of herbaceousness to the canapés.
- Serve or Store:These canapés are best served immediately. However, if you’re prepping in advance, they can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours in an airtight container.
