Ingredients

Servings

200 g smoked salmon
0.5 Cucumber
2.5 dl Cream
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp white wine vinegar
1 egg white
2 tbsp fresh parsley
pepper
sour cream

Method

Mix smoked salmon, cream, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, and coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley in a food processor until smooth.
Place the salmon cream in a bowl and add salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
Whisk the egg whites until stiff with an electric mixer and gently fold into the salmon cream to create a light and airy mousse.
Distribute the salmon mousse into small glasses.
Wash the cucumber, cut it in halves, and remove the seeds with a spoon before cutting it into small cubes.
Layer the cucumber cubes and salmon mousse alternately in the glasses.
Place the glasses in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Garnish the salmon mousse glasses with sour cream and some parsley, and serve chilled as an appetizer or with drinks.

Tip:Serve the salmon mousse in glasses with a small crispy cracker for added crunch, or on top of a cracker as a snack. If you prefer a milder salmon mousse, you can replace part of the smoked salmon with fresh raw salmon.
