2 ounces smoked salmon, cut into paper-thin slices
Additional white pepper for dusting
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, place the chopped salmon and ⅔ cup of the cream. Toss well to absorb into the salmon, then press through a mesh sieve to remove the cream, but some will stick to the salmon. Return coated salmon to bowl and discard cream. Add the whiskey, ½ teaspoon white pepper, and nutmeg to bowl. Mix well, cover bowl, and chill.
When ready to serve, whip the remaining ⅓ cup cream until stiff peaks form. Fold into the chilled mixture a little at a time to make the filling.
Lay slices of bread out on work counter and butter 2 slices on one side. Spread on some of the filling, then some of the paper-thin salmon slices, dust with a little more white pepper, and top with another slice, buttered side down. Cut off crusts then slice into triangles. Repeat with remaining ingredients and bread slices. Serve with tea.
