Gluten Free Smoked Salmon Hors d'Oeuvres

These tasty little bites are perfect gluten free appetizers.  Delicious smoked salmon with a creamy sauce and salty capers on waxy baby potato slices.  They are a hit whenever they are served.

This idea came from someone in our wine group as we are often looking for gluten free recipes.  They make substantial little bites and taste best at room temperature.  The potato slice base is also sturdy enough that you can assemble them before hand and just take them out of the fridge 15 minutes or so before serving.

There are many variations you can use with this recipe idea but I have written it the way I like it best. You can mix the garnish up on this with fresh dill, chives or parsley. I happen to like the saltiness of capers best so I have written the recipe up this way.  You can also experiment with the dollop of cream and switch it our for cream cheese if you like.

Depending on your taste for smoked salmon you will use between 1.5 and 2.5 ounces of smoked salmon.  I tend to put just a small piece on each appetizer but if your crowd are smoked salmon lovers you may want to heap a bit bigger piece on each potato base.

These will go well with any sparkling wine, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay or Pinot Noir.
