Smoked Salmon Cheese Log

A creamy and luxurious cheese log wrapped in delicate smoked salmon, perfect for entertaining or as a sophisticated appetizer.

Ingredients:

For the Cheese Mixture:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

¼ cup sour cream

1 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped

1 tbsp capers, drained and chopped

Zest of 1 lemon

¼ tsp garlic powder

For Assembly and Serving:

6-8 oz thinly sliced smoked salmon

Crackers, baguette slices, or cucumber rounds

Optional: Fresh dill sprigs and lemon wedges for garnish

Directions:

Prepare the Cheese Base:

In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, chopped dill, capers, lemon zest, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and evenly combined.

Shape the Cheese Log:

Lay a piece of plastic wrap on a clean surface. Spoon the cheese mixture onto the center and shape it into a log, using the wrap to smooth and mold it. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap to seal. Chill the log in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until firm.

Wrap with Smoked Salmon:

Lay a new sheet of plastic wrap on the counter. Arrange the smoked salmon slices on the wrap, overlapping slightly to form a seamless layer large enough to fully cover the cheese log.

Unwrap the chilled cheese log and place it on the center of the salmon. Using the plastic wrap, carefully roll the salmon around the cheese log, pressing gently to secure. Twist the ends of the wrap to tighten and chill for another 30 minutes to set.

Garnish and Serve:

Unwrap the salmon cheese log and transfer it to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh dill sprigs and lemon wedges for an elegant touch. Serve with crackers, baguette slices, or cucumber rounds.
