Chilean Cucumber Appetizers
Nope, I don't Chilean sea bass in this recipe. Many don't know that smoked salmon from Chile is just as popular and tasty as Norwegian smoked salmon. If you find it in your supermarket I urge you to grab it. If not, any smoked salmon will do, be it cold or hot smoked. This recipe reminds me so much of a side dish my Dad used to make, using herring, onions and sour cream. He always served it free in a relish tray for his diners. I Yanked this recipe to reflect a more universal appeal.
