Categories     dinner, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 very thin slices smoked salmon
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cooked crab meat
2 1/2 tablespoons heavy cream
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 teaspoons pesto (one with little cheese)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons caviar, optional
Chervil sprig or basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Cut each salmon slice into a 2-by-4-inch rectangle, reserving trimmed edges for another use. Cover a baking sheet with plastic wrap. Lay the salmon out on the plastic wrap, and cover with another layer of plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine crab meat and cream, mixing with a fork to break up the crab into fine shreds and to bind it lightly with the cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • For each salmon roll, lay a rectangle of salmon in the center of a 12-by-6-inch square of plastic wrap. Evenly spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the crab mixture on the salmon. Begin rolling the salmon on its long side, lifting the plastic wrap to help form the salmon into a cigarette shape. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap tightly to make the cylinder compact, and use your hands to make it a uniform shape. Place rolls on a small baking sheet, and chill in the freezer for 1 hour. The rolls may be made and frozen up to 2 days in advance.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the pesto and olive oil, and season to taste with salt. Set aside.
  • An hour before serving, remove salmon rolls from freezer. Remove plastic wrap, and cut the ends from each roll to make neat cylinders. Let warm to room temperature. To serve, lay a salmon roll in the center of each plate. Spoon a little caviar (if using) on top of each, and garnish with a chervil sprig or small basil leaf. Spoon a little pesto oil on the plate, and serve.

I thought the salmon roll was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salmon roll didn't turn out well. The salmon was dry and the roll was too loose.
