Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C (conventional; 180 °C fan) and place the puff pastry with its parchment on a baking tray; roll the edge over slightly.
  2. Blind-bake the pastry for 4 to 5 minutes and let it cool briefly.
  3. Stir the soured cream, cream cheese, egg, nutmeg, salt, pepper and half of the dill until smooth and spread over the pastry.
  4. Cut the smoked salmon into strips, arrange on the cream, drizzle with the lemon juice and sprinkle the cheese over.
  5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown, leave to cool briefly and cut into pieces, sprinkled with the remaining dill.

Drink with it

  • Sparkling wine · excellent match

    Brut Sekt or Crémant

    Bubbles and acidity take the heaviness off the buttery puff pastry and the cheese, and the delicate fruit lets the smoky tone stand.

  • White wine · excellent match

    Dry Riesling or Grüner Veltliner

    Firm acidity cuts through the cream and the cheese, and citrus and herbal notes pick up the lemon and dill.

  • Vodka · excellent match

    Vodka, ice cold and neat in a small glass

    The cold, neutral sip clears the fat from the cream and cheese and lets the smoked salmon and dill stand.
