Radishes Filled with Salmon Roe and Lemon Cream
- 35 to 40 radishes, halved crosswise
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
- 3 tablespoons salmon roe
- Trim the end of each radish half so that the half will stand upright and with a small melon-ball cutter hollow out the radishes.
- The radishes may be hollowed out 8 hours in advance and kept chilled in a bowl of water.
- Drain the radish shells, inverted, on paper towels for 5 minutes.
- In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the cream cheese on high speed for 5 minutes, or until it is very light and fluffy, beat in the zest, the lemon juice, the dill, and salt and pepper to taste, and fold in the salmon roe.
- Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip and pipe it into the radish shells.
