We only ever had it at Christmas as a starter, and my mother always just did it with brown bread and lemon juice. I always quite liked it, without being particularly excited about it...
This year, I brought the leftovers home with me after Christmas. I had some yesterday with teeny tiny buckwheat pancakes and sour cream (nice, SO much nicer than with just bread) and tonight I had some with some very thin cucumber (as seen on Saturday Kitchen the other day) - ie pared wafer thin with a vegetable peeler. Oh my god! It was completely different, and REALLY nice. Just cucumber, smoked salmon, some lemon juice and some black pepper.
I'm thinking that I've clearly been missing something all these years.
What ways do YOU like smoked salmon? I still have some leftovers, and now I'm all inspired to try something different with them.
