CREAMY WASABI SPREAD
Sesame seeds create an attractive coating for this easy cracker spread. Be sure to watch when you're toasting them; they burn easily. You'll find rice crackers in the ethnic food aisle. You can use any flavor, but the wasabi ones are very tasty. -Tammie Balon, Boyce, Virginia

SMOKED SALMON WITH AVOCADO AND WASABI CREAM CHEESE FINGER SANWICHES
This is a fun take on my favorite kind of sushi: salmon and avocado with a healthy dose of wasabi. I keep it open-faced here so you can see how pretty the insides look and so as not to cover up the succulence of the ingredients with too much bread.
