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.

The key to getting this dish right lies in using high-quality, thinly sliced smoked salmon and a generous spread of cream cheese on a perfectly toasted English muffin. 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.
