What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Time To Eat: Smoked Salmon Bagel! Energize your morning with the natural protein of smoked salmon. When adding cheese, choose wisely because it doesn’t always have to be cream cheese. Goat cheese, Camembert, and Brie are nice alternatives, especially since they’re spreadable and you may already have them on hand. If you’re not very excited about tomatoes, switch them out for thinly sliced radishes or chilled cucumbers. Onions and capers add the zing that wows any family member or overnight guest. Put it all together and watch harmony reign.
SMOKED SALMON BAGEL
Ingredients:
1 bakery plain bagel, split and toasted
2 ounces smoked wild salmon, flaked
1 ounce cream cheese, softened
1 small tomato, sliced
1 slice red onion, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon capers
1 hard-boiled egg, sliced
Everything But Bagel seasoning
Dill weed, for garnish
Instructions:
To assemble ingredients, place toasted bagel split side up on a plate. In a small bowl, combine smoked salmon and cream cheese. Spread over the bagel. Top with a slice or two of tomato. Arrange red onion strips over tomato. Sprinkle capers over all. Either add a layer of hard-boiled eggs or eat them separately as you go. Spice it up with Everything But Bagel seasoning and dill weed. Enjoy.

I had not known it was considered ethnic Jewish food in the US until I came here. Yours is a fancy variation, darling.
