Ingredients:

1 cup cucumber
100g
3 oz smoked salmon
81g
1 oz brie cheese
27g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cucumber:
- Wash the cucumber thoroughly under cold water.
- Slice the cucumber into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Aim for uniform thickness to ensure stability for the toppings.
2. Prepare the Brie Cheese:
- Remove the brie cheese from the packaging.
- Slice the brie into small, bite-sized pieces. The quantity should be enough to place a small piece on each cucumber slice.
3. Prepare the Smoked Salmon:
- If the smoked salmon is in large slices, cut it into small strips or pieces that can be easily placed on top of the cucumber slices.
4. Assemble the Bites:
- Lay the cucumber slices flat on a serving plate or platter.
- Place a piece of brie cheese on top of each cucumber slice.
- Top the brie with a small piece of smoked salmon.
5. Optional Garnishes:
- For an extra touch, you can add a small sprig of fresh dill on top of each bite.
- A light drizzle of lemon juice can add a refreshing zest.
- Optionally, a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper can enhance the flavors.
6. Serve:
- Arrange the prepared bites on a serving platter and serve immediately. These bites are best enjoyed fresh.

Tips:

- Choose high-quality smoked salmon to ensure the best flavor.

- For an added touch, you can garnish each bite with a sprig of fresh dill or a small caper.

- To make slicing the brie easier, refrigerate it for about 30 minutes before cutting.

- Use a mandoline slicer for uniform and thin cucumber slices.
