Smoked salmon with creamy cucumbers

Ingredients:

• 220 gr. smoked salmon
• 1 cucumber
• 2 tbsp sour cream
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
• Toasted pumpernickel slices, for serving
• Special equipment: mandoline vegetable slicer

Preparation:

1. Thinly slice the cucumber on a mandoline and place in a colander over a bowl. Sprinkle with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and let the cucumbers sit for 5 minutes. Squeeze out any excess water and place the cucumbers in a clean medium bowl. Add the sour cream, dill, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and fold with a silicone spatula.
2. Place the smoked salmon loosely on one half of the platter, leaving the other half empty. Spoon the cucumber mixture onto a quarter of a serving platter or into a small bowl that will fit on the platter. Serve with toasted pumpernickel slices on the other quarter of the serving platter.
