1 cup all-purpose flour

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

I'm allergic to dairy, so I substituted the dill creme fraiche with a vegan sour cream. It worked out great!

I'm not a big fan of smoked salmon, but I really enjoyed this dish. The potato pancakes and dill creme fraiche balanced out the smokiness of the salmon.
