From Faith: It takes minutes to make this appetizer. Buy flat tostada shells (or mini cups) at the supermarket. Mix together yogurt, jarred horseradish and mayo. Layer on smoked salmon. Sprinkle with olives or chives and a splash of tequila. Done!
You’ll find this recipe in his new cookbook, Jacques Pépin, Heart and Soul in the Kitchen, featuring the food Jacques likes to make for family and friends.
If you keep the following ingredients in your fridge, you can do what Jacques does, whip this together for your family and friends even when they’re unexpected. As for me, this is a go-to midnight snack.
