Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Black Pepper
1/4 teaspoon
Fresh Dill Sprigs
2 (for garnish)
Soft Butter

Instructions
1
Begin by softening the butter and spreading an even layer on each slice of miniature rye bread. Set the prepared bread aside.
2
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add salt and black pepper. Whisk them together until well combined.

In a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, pour in the beaten eggs. Stir gently and continuously to allow the eggs to form large, soft curds. Remove them from heat while they are still slightly creamy—they should not be dry.

Evenly distribute the scrambled eggs over the buttered rye rounds, creating a generous layer on each slice.
5
Top each egg-covered slice with flaked smoked salmon, allowing the rich flavors to meld.
