SMOKED SALMON CANAPE WITH GREEN OLIVE GRAPEFRUIT TAPENADE
Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse the olives, mint, handful of chives, half of the grapefruit zest, all of the grapefruit juice, cumin, cinnamon, and olive oil. Dont over process, it should be a little chunky, but still finely chopped.
- Pour the Champagne into a small saute pan with coriander seeds. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and reduce until it just turns syrupy. Strain the mixture and set aside to cool.
- In a small bowl, stir together the cooled Champagne "syrup", remaining grapefruit zest, honey, sumac, and creme fraiche. Season the mixture with salt, and pepper, to taste.
- Heat a grill pan or large nonstick skillet and warm the naan bread on both sides. Cut the bread in half from top to bottom, then crosswise into 1-inch wide pieces. Smear each one with some tapenade, then top with a small piece of salmon, a piece of grapefruit and dollop of creme fraiche. Balance a short length of chive on top if you want to be extra fancy!
SMOKED SALMON ON IRISH SODA BREAD WITH CHIVE BUTTER
Steps:
- Slice the soda bread into thin slices, about 1/4-inch, and cut each slice into a rough 2-inch square until you have 16 pieces. Wrap the remaining bread in plastic wrap and store in a cool dry place. Mix the butter and chives together and spread a small amount onto each square. Top with a small fold of salmon and garnish with a sprig of fresh dill.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Put the oatmeal into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Pour into a bowl and add the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, raisins and caraway seeds. Stir well to combine. Pour the buttermilk in and stir quickly until well combined. Shape the dough into a round about 6 inches in diameter and put onto a baking sheet. Place into the top half of the oven and bake 30 to 40 minutes, until lightly brown on top. When tapped, the bread will give off a firm, hollow sound. Remove from the oven and let cool.
SALMON WITH SMOKED SALMON BUTTER
Any salmon, especially the deep red wild sockeye, will benefit from a generous dollop of this smoked salmon butter. The smoky-velvet taste lends a robust character, so little other embellishment is needed. Make it in advance and keep in the freezer, and you have an uncommonly elegant dinner in no time. The butter will lift a fillet of arctic char, butterflied trout, seasonal shad or other white-fleshed fish.

Steps:
- Use a knife to mince smoked salmon. Place in a small bowl. Add butter and, with a fork, mash together until well combined. Add lemon zest and dill and mash in. Scoop butter onto a work surface, form into a cylinder about 2 inches in diameter, wrap in plastic and freeze. Have 4 dinner plates warming.
- Heat a large heavy skillet, preferably cast iron, on medium-high. Add oil and brush to coat entire surface. Pat fish dry and place fillets, skin side down, in pan. Increase heat to high and cook about 3 minutes, until skin has browned. Turn the fillets and sear on high until flesh side has browned and is cooked to desired degree of doneness, another 2 to 3 minutes for medium to medium-rare.
- While fish cooks, remove butter from freezer and slice into 4 patties. When fish is done, place a fillet, skin side down, on each dinner plate. Dust surface of fish with salt and pepper, place a portion of smoked salmon butter on top of each fillet and serve.

Steps:
- In a medium size bowl, combine the mustard, orange zest, 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice, salt, pepper, butter, and 3 tablespoons of chives; mix well to blend.
- Preheat oven to 425.
- In a lightly buttered baking dish, place the fillets skin side down. Brush each fillet with the remaining lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Spread about 2-2 1/2 tablespoons of butter mixture over each fillet to coat evenly.
- Bake for about 12 minutes or until done. To check for doneness, insert a thin-bladed knife into the thickest part of the fillet. The flesh should flake and separate easily and there should be no trace of translucence. The fish should be opaque and flaky. Transfer the fish to a warm platter and brush any remaining mustard chive butter over the fish while it is hot. Sprinkle with the remaining chives to garnish. Cut each fillet in half to serve.
- Cooking Times For Fish: As a rule of thumb, you can expect fish to take about 12 minutes per inch to cook through in a preheated 425 oven.

Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality smoked salmon. Look for salmon that is firm and has a deep orange color.
- If you don't have any chives on hand, you can use green onions or shallots instead.
- To make the chive mustard butter ahead of time, simply combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, bring the butter to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- If you're short on time, you can use store-bought crackers or bread instead of making your own.
- To make the canapés even more special, you can garnish them with a sprig of fresh dill or a dollop of caviar.
Conclusion:
These smoked salmon canapés are a delicious and elegant appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. They're easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time, so you can relax and enjoy your guests.
