Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut baguette crosswise into 1/4-inch slices. (TIP: You should get 28-30 slices.)Arrange slices on an unlined baking sheet. Drizzle or brush 2 tbsp oil over top, then season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bake in the middle of the oven until golden and crisp, 8-10 min.
Meanwhile, thinly slice chives. Transfer chives to a small bowl. (NOTE: Chives are also used for glazed veggies and mash.)Pick tarragon leaves from stems, then finely chop.Finely chop salmon. (TIP: If you have a food processor, add salmon and remaining ingredients in step 3 to the processor. Pulse a few times until combined.)
Add salmon, sour cream, mayo, 5 tbsp cream cheese, 1 tbsp tarragon and 1/2 tsp lemon juice (reserved from cake) to a medium bowl. Season with pepper, to taste, then combine with a fork. (TIP: Mash spread against the sides of the bowl to help combine.)Transfer spread to a serving vessel, if desired. Sprinkle 1/2 tbsp chives over top. (NOTE: Reserve remaining chives for glazed veggies and mash.)Cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge until spread is slightly firm, 2 hrs.Move on to the veggie add-on if you ordered it. If not, move on to glazed veggies.
Remove spread from the fridge 20 min before serving.When ready to serve, arrange garlic crostini alongside smoked salmon spread. (TIP: We recommend serving salmon spread and crostini as an appetizer before feasting!)
