As a container for making our canapés, you can use any round container, over which you'll need to place a layer of plastic wrap. Once ready, add a layer of smoked salmon, which we'll fill with the cream we've prepared. Cover it with the salmon and seal it with plastic wrap to give it a firm hold.
Once all the canapés are ready, it's best to let them rest in the refrigerator for at least half an hour. That's why this recipe is ideal to prepare on Christmas morning and forget about until dinnertime. Plus, you'll wow your guests with its flavor.
Canapés are the stars of Christmas dinners. Following the advice of renowned chef Arguiñano, choosing salmon and avocado pastries is a tasty and quick option to prepare, ideal for avoiding long hours in the kitchen on festive days. Although there are many types of canapés, when it comes to a dinner party with many guests, simple and inexpensive recipes are the best. Because a whole day in the kitchen can be frustrating for everyone, especially on holidays.
