Vegetarian: Replace salmon with finely chopped roasted vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms mixed with cream cheese and herbs.
Spicy kick: Add a teaspoon of smoked paprika or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the filling for some heat.
Cheese lovers: Mix shredded mozzarella or parmesan into the filling for an extra cheesy bite.
Herb swap: Experiment with basil, tarragon, or mint instead of the traditional dill and parsley for a unique flavor profile.
FAQ
Q: Can I use fresh salmon instead of smoked?
A: Yes! Cook fresh salmon by baking or pan-searing it until fully cooked, then flake it before mixing with the cream cheese and herbs.
Q: Are these rolls freezer-friendly?
A: Absolutely! Assemble the rolls, freeze them on a tray until firm, then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
Q: Can I make these gluten-free?
A: Yes. Use gluten-free puff pastry or crescent roll dough alternatives available in many stores.
Q: How can I make these vegan?
A: Substitute cream cheese with a plant-based version and use smoked carrot or marinated tofu instead of salmon.
