Smoked Salmon Tartines with Capers and Chopped Red Onions

If you have a party coming up, here’s a delicious hors d’oeuvre that takes only minutes to prepare. You can serve it chilled or at room temperature. It’s also easy to prepare ahead of time – just add to your favorite bread, toast, or cracker when ready to serve!


I used dried dill and capers which pair perfectly with smoked salmon. And lemon juice and red onions are a nice contrast to the salty salmon and capers. With only a few steps and 6 simple ingredients you’ll have the perfect appetizer! Add a dollop of sour cream on top to make it extra special.

First chop your onions, capers and smoked salmon.

Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl.

      Delicious, we have served this with crackers and cream cheese, and have also put it in a salad with some white balsamic and olive oil. Either way there is never any leftover.

      We didn’t have any leftovers. Served the salmon in a small dish and crackers on the side! Great hit. We will make it again.
