Notes
Smoked Salmon: Choose a smoked salmon fillet product rather than a salt cured salmon which is a thinner sliced product and traditionally served on a bagel with capers. . The most popular and easy to find is the fillets from the Honey Smoked Fish Company sold at Costco and Safeway.
More Serving Ideas:
- Grapes: Place grapes in-between items on the smoked salmon platter. Red, green or black grapes will work beautifully.
- Cornichons are a wonderful addition. Cornichons are tiny little dill pickles and their tart flavor makes them an ideal garnish for any charcuterie board.
- Nuts: Add a sprinkling of nuts here and there on the platter. Raw almonds, roasted shelled pistachios and lightly salted cashews are all good choices.
- Olives: A little bowl of olives would be lovely. Choosing olives from an olive bar, rather than jarred will bring more flavor.
- Fruit: A little bowl of raspberries would bring a nice pop of color.
