Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 Sheet Puff Pastry, thawed, see note 1
3 ounces Smoked Salmon (90 grams)
1/2 cup Cream Cheese
1/3 cup Finely Chopped Fresh Chives, see note 2
Splash of Lemon Juice
A pinch of Black Pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to a temperature that is stated on your puff pastry packaging.
  • Roll out the pastry (if not using the pre-rolled one). Use a small round cookie cutter to cut as many circles as you can. Place them onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment (or a silicone mat).
  • Bake them until puffed and golden brown on top (please read the puff pastry package instructions for cooking time but keep an eye on them as they can be ready quicker than that).
  • Meanwhile: in a food processor, combine smoked salmon, cream cheese, chives, lemon juice and black pepper. Pulse until you get a smooth-ish mixture. Set aside.
  • When the puffs are ready, take them out and let them cool down completely. Take each puff and using a knife open them up (like a shell). Fill one part of it with about a teaspoon of the mixture and put the other part back on the top. Continue until you have used up all the mixture.
  • Enjoy!

SMOKED SALMON PUFFS



Smoked Salmon Puffs image

These little bites look impressive, but they aren't hard or expensive. Because the cream cheese filling is so flavorful, you need only a small amount of smoked salmon. The pastry can be baked ahead (and even frozen for up to a month).

Time 1h30m

Yield about 40 puffs (10 to 12 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 9-ounce sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil)
1 Kirby cucumber or 1/4 English cucumber
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons finely sliced chives
Kosher salt
2 ounces smoked salmon
1/2 teaspoon black sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  • Unfold the pastry, and cut out rounds with a 1 1/2-inch round cookie cutter (you should get roughly 40). Space them at least 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly score the center of each round with a 3/4-inch cookie cutter (don't press all the way through). Lightly brush each round with the egg.
  • Invert another rimmed baking sheet on top of the dough rounds, and bake for 5 minutes. (Covering the rounds helps them puff straight up evenly.) Remove the top baking sheet, and continue to bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let the rounds cool completely on the baking sheet, then use the handle of a wooden spoon to gently punch a hole in the middle of each round. (The baked pastry can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 1 day or frozen for up to 1 month.)
  • Meanwhile, microwave the vinegar and sun-dried tomatoes in a small bowl, covered, for 30 seconds; let cool. Reserve 1 teaspoon of the vinegar, and finely chop the tomatoes. Finely shred the cucumber, and squeeze out all the excess moisture. Mash together the tomatoes, reserved vinegar, shredded cucumber, cream cheese, chives and 1/4 teaspoon salt with a fork in a medium bowl until smooth. Transfer the cream cheese filling to a pastry bag or resealable plastic bag (cut off the tip). (The filling can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.)
  • Tear or cut the salmon into 40 small pieces, and roll each into a rough rosette shape. Pipe some of the filling into each puff. Top each with a piece of salmon, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. (The salmon puffs can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours.)

BABY CREAM PUFFS FILLED WITH SMOKED SALMON



Baby Cream Puffs Filled with Smoked Salmon image

Simple to make, the unfilled cream puffs freeze easily, then can be reheated and stuffed with this tasty smoked salmon filling just before serving. You can also serve the cream puffs for dessert filled with vanilla ice cream and covered with chocolate sauce-the French bistro classic, profiteroles.

Yield makes 30 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, softened
2 teaspoons minced fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh tarragon, or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1/2 cup finely minced smoked salmon

Steps:

  • Position the oven racks so that they are evenly spaced. Preheat the oven to convection bake at 400°F. Cover a rimless cookie sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a cookie sheet.
  • To make the cream puffs, melt the butter in 1/2 cup boiling water in a saucepan over high heat. Add the flour all at once and stir until the mixture forms a solid mass. Cool for 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time and stir until the batter is smooth and glossy.
  • Scoop heaping teaspoonfuls of the dough onto the cookie sheet, spacing them about 1 1/2 inches apart.
  • Bake on the center rack for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F. Bake for 5 more minutes or until the cream puffs are dry and golden. Let cool.
  • To make the filling, stir together the butter, chives, tarragon, and smoked salmon while the cream puffs bake.
  • Fill the cooled cream puffs with the mixture just before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your dish, especially the smoked salmon and the cream cheese. Look for smoked salmon that is wild-caught and sustainably sourced, and cream cheese that is made with fresh milk and cream.
  • Make sure your ingredients are cold before you start. This will help the cream cheese stay firm and the smoked salmon slices from breaking.
  • Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing can make the filling tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Chill the puffs before serving. This will help them set and make them easier to handle.
  • Garnish the puffs with fresh herbs or smoked salmon roe. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.

Conclusion:

Smoked salmon stuffed puffs are a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They're made with a combination of smoked salmon, cream cheese, and herbs, and they're baked until golden brown. These puffs are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering!
