INSTRUCTIONS

plus additional sprigs for garnish.  In a medium bowl, whip the cream
cheese until fluffy. Add the green  onions, chopped dill, lime juice,
lime zest, and the pepper and beat  until combined.  Spread a
2-foot-long sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Arrange  the
smoked salmon slices on the plastic, overlapping them slightly so  that
there are no gaps, to form a 15-by-8-inch rectangle. Spread 2/3  cup of
the lime cream cheese evenly over the salmon. Starting from  the long
end and using the plastic wrap to help, roll up the salmon  to form a
log about 1 inch thick. Wrap the roll in plastic, twist the  ends
tightly, and refrigerate overnight or for up to 2 days.  Using a very
sharp knife, slice the salmon log 1/3 inch thick.  Arrange the salmon
roll-ups on pumpernickel bread triangles, garnish  with a little caviar
and dill sprig, and serve.  Prosciutto Roll-Ups Variation: Substitute
1/2 pound of thinly sliced  imported prosciutto for the smoked salmon.
Refrigerate overnight  before serving. Omit the caviar and dill-sprig
garnish.  NOTES : Make the smoked salmon rolls at least one day ahead
to allow  the flavors to mellow before slicing.  Garnish the sliced
roll-ups  with your favorite caviar; salmon and whitefish caviar are
inexpensive choices. You'll have plenty of lime cream cheese left
over, which can be used in combination with other hors d'oeuvres.
