smoked salmon with vodka crème fraîche
Whip the cream half firmly with vodka, pepper & salt. Mix the horseradish with the cream. Cut the beetroot into julienne. On an appetiser plate: a slice of salmon, a spoonful of beetroot, a dollop of horseradish cream, salmon eggs or, as in this case, a spoonful of Belgian caviar, tufts of dill and a few turns of the pepper mill.

smoked salmon with vodka cream

cooked beetroot salmon eggs or caviar dill salt & pepper
This is a quick-fix snack. Unless, of course, you smoke the salmon yourself. That would really make a splash at the table. The vodka cream plays the leading role in this dish. Be careful about two things: do not use too much liquor in proportion to the cream, as it will then become too watery and will bind together hardly or not at all. And also: the alcohol does not evaporate in this cold preparation. So it is not a good idea to let the kids lick the surplus in the cream pot.
