Ingredients

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • SAUCE:
  • 2 shallots
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • FINISHING:
  • 1 cup fresh arugula or baby spinach, coarsely chopped
  • 4-1/2 ounces smoked salmon or lox, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup shaved Asiago cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. Unfold puff pastry; cut into 25 squares. Transfer to greased baking sheets. Bake 11-13 minutes or until golden brown.
  2. Meanwhile, grate 1 shallot and finely chop the other. In a small bowl, combine shallots, mustard, mayonnaise and vinegar. While whisking, gradually add oil in a steady stream.
