Ingredients

• 3 thin-skinned (English) cucumbers
• 2 cups herbed soft cheese (such as Boursin)
• 1/3 pound smoked salmon, cut into 1-inch slivers
• Capers, as needed
• Sprigs of fresh dill or tarragon, as needed

Directions

Use a melon baler or a round metal measuring teaspoon to scoop out a little cup in the center of each slice. Spoon or pipe cheese into cups. Refrigerate up to 2 hours before serving.
