　　Whatever else you set out, great smoked salmon will always draw a crowd. And like any good leading actor, it works well with all of the supporting players, from horseradish cream to egg salad.

Ingredients

　　1 cup chilled heavy cream

　　3 tablespoons bottled white horseradish

　　2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

　　1 pound sliced smoked salmon

　　Whisk cream with horseradish, mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until it is thick and holds soft peaks. Serve salmon with horseradish cream on the side.

　　Cooks’ note:

　　Horseradish cream can be made 1 hour ahead and chilled. Stir before serving.
