SALMON AND CUCUMBER TARTARE WITH WASABI SAUCE
This makes a delightful hors d'oeuvre, appetizer or even a light supper. If you're serving it as an hors d'oeuvre you can spoon it onto cucumber rounds, small endive leaves or toasted pita triangles. The better the salmon, the better this will be (sashimi grade is the best).

Steps:
- Make sure there are no small pin bones in the salmon. Remove with tweezers if there are, then mince the fish very fine. Combine with the cucumber in a medium bowl.
- Rinse the shallot with cold water and drain on a paper towel. Add to the salmon and cucumber. Add the capers, minced pickled ginger, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper, and lemon juice and toss together.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the wasabi or horseradish, vinegar, soy sauce, and olive oil. Toss with the fish and cucumber mixture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To serve, spoon onto cucumber rounds or pita triangles, or mold in plastic wrap-lined ramekins and unmold onto plates as a first course. Sprinkle with chives and garnish with pickled ginger.

CUCUMBER CUPS WITH DILL CREAM AND SMOKED SALMON
Classic combos are classic because the flavors go well together! Dill, cucumber, and smoked fish are combined with a bit of lemon to perk things up. Small pieces of smoked trout would be a good substitute for the salmon in this pretty, easy, no-cook hors d'oeuvre. Cucumber cups can be assembled and kept chilled in an airtight container 1 day ahead of time.

- Beat cream cheese, chopped dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, and black pepper together in a bowl. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon cheese mixture into each cucumber cup. Top each cup with 1 salmon strip and 1 dill sprig.

CUCUMBER, WASABI AND FRESH GINGER SALSA
From www.kettlechips.co. Tone down the spiciness if you wish by reducing the amount of ginger and wasabi. This is spicy-I've warned you. For a chunkier consistency, omit the yogurt.
