Ingredients:
⅓ cup crème fraîche
¼ lb. thinly sliced smoked salmon, cut crosswise into ¼-inch-wide strips
freshly ground black pepper
½ medium lemon
1 small bunch fresh chives, sliced diagonally into ¼-inch segments
Directions:
Discard any damaged outer endive leaves. Trim the root end and separate the leaves until you have about 35 to 40 large leaves. Arrange the leaves on a baking sheet.
Put the crème fraîche in a squeeze bottle, a small piping bag, or a small plastic bag with one corner snipped off, and pipe a small amount on each endive leaf. Arrange about 4 strips of the sliced salmon on top of the crème fraîche. Season the salmon with a little black pepper and a small squeeze of lemon juice. Sprinkle a few chives on top and arrange the leaves on a platter to serve.
Notes:
You can prep everything in advance, but assemble right before serving.
You can also serve the crème fraîche, chives, and salmon in the potato nests instead of the endive.
