Categories     Appetizer     Seafood     Snack

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 burrito style spinach wraps (or can use any burrito size wrap)
4-6 ounces cream cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ tablespoon chives
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
2-3 cups spinach
4-6 ounces smoked salmon

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine cream cheese, dill, chives, and garlic powder. Mix until well-incorporated and creamy.
  • Lay out both wraps and evenly spread the cream cheese onto each one, leaving about a half inch of room around the edges. Spread the cream cheese out to the edge on one side, as you'll use this side to "seal" the pinwheel.
  • Evenly distribute the spinach between your two tortillas, followed by the smoked salmon.
  • Tightly roll up each wrap, tucking in the ends as you go. It's important to roll these as tightly as possible so that the pinwheels stay together when cut.
  • With a small serrated knife cut the edges off of each wrap, and then cut each one into ½ inch rounds. You should get about 14-16 pinwheels, 7-8 per wrap.
  • Feel free to assemble as-is or stick a toothpick into each pinwheel to serve. Serves 4.

SMOKED SALMON PINWHEELS



Smoked Salmon Pinwheels image

In the old days, I would go out to the buffets and eat my weight in smoked salmon! I especially liked it served traditionally, with capers, cream cheese and onions. The only problem was that the capers and onions always fell off the fork when I tried to eat it all together. This recipe combines all my favorite ingredients in an easy-to-make and easy-to-serve party appetizer!

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons diced red onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves
8 ounces sliced smoked salmon (we recommend Nova, but you make use the saltier lox)
2 tablespoons small capers, drained
1 seedless cucumber, with peel, sliced into rounds the size of crackers

Steps:

  • Combine the cream cheese, lemon juice, red onion, and basil in a bowl until completely blended.
  • On a piece of waxed paper, arrange the smoked salmon slices in a rectangle about 3 inches wide and 12 inches long, slightly overlapping each piece. (If the salmon slices are cut irregularly, simply piece them together like a puzzle.)
  • Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on the salmon, sprinkle with the capers, and roll up like a jellyroll.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm, then cut into 1/2-inch slices. Place each pinwheel atop a cucumber round to serve.

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use thick-cut bacon, thinly sliced smoked salmon, and fresh cream cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing: This will make it easier to spread and will help the pinwheels hold their shape.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bacon slices: This will help ensure that each pinwheel has a good amount of filling.
  • Roll the bacon slices up tightly: This will help keep the pinwheels together and prevent them from falling apart.
  • Chill the pinwheels for at least 30 minutes before slicing: This will help them firm up and make them easier to slice.
