The English Muffin with Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese has a rich history dating back to the 18th century. Originating in England, the English muffin was traditionally served with butter or jam.

Alternatively, some chefs also incorporate a hint of lemon zest or a sprinkle of black pepper to elevate the flavors. Whether enjoyed for breakfast or brunch, this dish continues to be a beloved classic that showcases the timeless appeal of simple yet exquisite flavors.
