Time 3h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
8 large eggs
2 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
5 day-old everything bagels, halved horizontally and cut into bite-size pieces
Butter, for greasing the baking dish
2 tablespoons capers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus fronds for garnish
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 small red onion, finely diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • For the everything-bagel strata: Combine the cream cheese and eggs in a blender and blend until smooth. Add the milk and Parmesan; blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Add the dill, blend a few seconds, and then blend in the lemon zest.
  • Transfer the custard to a large bowl. Add the bagel pieces and mix to coat, pressing on the pieces to totally submerge them in the custard. Transfer the mixture to a buttered 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours, pressing on the bagels a few times.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • While the oven heats, remove the strata from the refrigerator and place on a baking sheet. Bake until puffed and lightly golden brown at the edges and just set in the center, about 40 minutes. Let sit for 15 minutes.
  • For the caper relish: Combine the capers, dill, tomatoes and onions in a bowl. Season with a touch of salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • To serve, cut the strata into large round circles (like a bagel) and place on a plate. Top with a few slices of smoked salmon and some of the relish.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my liking. I would recommend simplifying some of the steps.

The caper relish was too vinegary for my taste. I would recommend using less vinegar or adding some sugar to balance out the flavor.

The bagel strata was a bit dry. I would recommend adding more milk or cream to the mixture.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the bagel strata.

I loved the combination of flavors in this dish. The bagel strata was savory and cheesy, the caper relish was tangy and bright, and the smoked salmon added a touch of smokiness. It was all perfect together.

This was a great make-ahead breakfast dish. I prepped it the night before and popped it in the oven in the morning. It was perfect for a busy weekday.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but I loved this dish! The smoked salmon was subtle and not overpowering, and the caper relish added a nice brightness. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone, even if they're not a fan of fish.
