Pretty smoked salmon verrines are an easy recipe to make, but look so impressive! Ideal for a light first course for a dinner party.

Simple, quick and easy smoked salmon and cheese layered verrines

A dash of care with presentation lifts a simple dish from something straightforward and easy to something a bit special, and these smoked salmon verrines are a perfect example. Even the name can impress: verrine rolls around the tongue impressively (even more so in a French accent), and sounds most professional even though the dish is just ingredients layered in a glass.  In the Fuss Free kitchen it is all about obtaining a good effort to glory ratio.

My smoked salmon verrines are perfect for a first course, even an amuse-bouche, or as a part of a brunch, maybe served with some scrambled egg? You don’t need to spend much on the smoked salmon; cheaper offcuts are perfect for this dish, and are sold in most supermarkets.

Delicious layered smoked salmon verrines made with Primula Cheese with Prawns.

Primula with prawns my favourite flavour and brings back childhood memories of a Primula sandwich on the beach – way back in the day when the Primula used to come in a metal tube which you really had to squeeze to get the last drops out.

If you don’t like seafood Primula have a range of 6 flavours to choose from, this would also be delicious made with the original or chive flavours.

    These look fab and would make the perfect first course or amuse bouche as you say- I can imagine guests being very impressed at being served these, they look delicious!

    I’m a big fan of the Primula seafood flavour too, in fact I’m quite fond of all the flavours! Will definitely have to give this a try.

    That’s so interesting. I’ve never seen cheese in a squeeze bottle.

      These cheeses used to come in a metal tube that had to be severely squeezed, the plastic is much easier to use.
