Start the preparation of the cucumber rolls with salmon and cheese by washing the cucumber and slicing it thinly with a mandoline or a vegetable peeler.
Place the cucumber slices on a cutting board (if you’re not confident in forming the roll, you can cover it with food wrap) slightly overlapping each other.
Spread the fresh spreadable cheese on half of the cucumbers. Continue with the smoked salmon and a finely chopped fresh scallion.
Form the roll by folding the cucumbers lengthwise. Divide the large roll into eight pieces with a smooth-bladed knife.
Serve the cucumber rolls with salmon and cheese accompanied by soy sauce or sweet and sour sauce as desired.

FAQ
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes, stracchino or robiola will work just fine.
Can I add other ingredients?
Sure! You can use avocado, but make sure it’s well ripened.
Can raw fish be used?
Of course, but it must be flash frozen. If it’s not, keep it in the freezer for 96 hours before using.
