In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese with chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and evenly combined.

Step 5
Place a ribbon of cucumber on top of the cream cheese, followed by a slice or two of smoked salmon.
Step 6
Garnish each sandwich with capers and a sprinkle of finely chopped fresh chives for an added burst of flavor.
Step 7
Optional: Cut each sandwich in half or into triangles for a more refined presentation.
Step 8
Arrange the sandwiches on a platter and serve immediately. Enjoy your elegant open-faced salmon tea sandwiches!
