- 1/2 cup (125 mL) 35%* whipping cream
- Zest of half lemon
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) fresh ground chives
- 1 English cucumber
- 1/4 cup (60 mL) salmon caviar
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Blades of chive, to taste
Preparation
Use a hand mixer to bring the whipping cream to a firm consistency. Then add the lemon zest and chives. Refrigerate.
Meanwhile, cut the cucumber in rounds of about 3/4 in. (1,5 cm). With a melon scoop*, remove the flesh in the centre of the slices while keeping the outer part of each cucumber round.
Stuff each cucumber slice with whipped cream and garnish with salmon caviar and freshly ground black pepper. Add a blade of chive and serve cold.

This canapé may be served in cherry tomatoes or canned, drained artichoke bottoms.*The melon scoop is used often for melon balls and Parisienne potatoes. It is also possible to use a teaspoon.
