Instructions
Step 1
1. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped capers, fresh dill, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard (if using). Mix until smooth and well blended.
Step 2
2. Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla, leaving a small border at the edges.
Step 3
3. Arrange smoked salmon slices in a single layer over the cream cheese, slightly overlapping if needed.
Step 4
4. Sprinkle with a few grinds of black pepper.
Step 5
5. Starting from one edge, tightly roll each tortilla into a log shape. Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up (this makes slicing easier).
Step 6
6. Using a sharp knife, trim the ends and slice each log into 8–10 even pinwheels.
Step 7
7. Arrange on a serving platter, garnish with extra dill if desired, and serve chilled.
