Method
- Cut spoon shapes from the puff pastry. Brush with the egg yolk whisked into the milk, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Drape each one over a tube of foil and bake at 374°F (190°C) for 15 minutes, until golden.
- Fill each spoon with cream cheese, a few salad leaves, and a rolled slice of salmon.
What we changed and why
- Puff pastry is wheat. Gluten-free puff pastry is hard to find and often contains cornstarch.
- We chose wild-caught. Some cured salmon uses dextrose.
