They will stay fresh for up to 2 days if stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Can I make this recipe vegetarian?

Absolutely! Replace the salmon with finely diced cucumbers, avocado, or roasted bell peppers for a refreshing vegetarian option.

What’s the best way to ensure the cream cheese mixture is smooth and easy to pipe?

Let the cream cheese soften at room temperature before mixing, and consider adding a splash of milk or cream for a smoother consistency.
