ingredients
1/4 cup whipped cream cheese, softened
salt and freshly ground black pepper
7 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced
24 cubes (1/2-inch size) English cucumber
3 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
small cocktail skewers
directions
Season the cream cheese with a light sprinkling of salt and pepper and mix well. Spread the seasoned cream cheese on the slices of smoked salmon and then cut the salmon into 1/2-inch slices.
Wrap a salmon strips around the cucumber cubes, forming a ball about 3/4-inch in size. Place the salmon-wrapped cucumber on parchment or waxed paper and place in the freezer. Freeze until firm.
When ready to serve, thaw the salmon balls until slightly soft (about 10 minutes) then roll each one in chopped dill and insert a skewer in each one to form a lollipop. Place the salmon lollipops on a serving platter and serve immediately.

This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
