FAQ
1. Can I use canned salmon?
Yes! Well-drained canned salmon works great—just flake it and remove any bones.
2. Can these be made ahead?
Absolutely. Assemble the roll up to a day in advance (if using flatbread) and slice right before serving. Puff pastry spirals are best baked fresh but can be chilled pre-bake for a few hours.
3. What herbs work best besides dill?
Parsley, tarragon, basil, and chives all complement salmon beautifully.
4. Can I freeze the rolls?
Unbaked puff pastry spirals freeze well for up to 2 months. Bake straight from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
