Salmon roll-ups are an exquisite dish of Italian cuisine that combines the delicate flavor of cold-smoked salmon, the creamy texture of ricotta, and refreshing greens. The origins of such appetizers trace back to Italian gastronomic traditions where the balance of flavors and quality ingredients play a crucial role. Buckwheat pancakes add a light nutty note to the dish, while avocado adds creaminess. Lemon juice highlights the freshness of each component, creating a harmonious blend. These roll-ups are perfect as an elegant appetizer on a festive table or as a light snack. Served chilled, they are especially refreshing in warm weather.
