Start by pickling onions; this can also be done ahead of time. Bring vinegar and water to a bowl while slicing red onion. Place red onion in a small mason jar, then add sugar, salt, peppercorns, chilli flakes and hot liquid. Cover the mason jar tightly and give a quick shake to mix ingredients. Set aside at room temperate; once cooled, store it in the fridge for up to a few weeks if opened.

Place cream cheese in a small mixing bowl, add Canadian Seas and whisk until smooth.

Heat your frying oil to medium-high heat in a small sauce pot, and fry capers until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside in a fine strainer or paper towel.

Gather other ingredients to prepare for plating. Lemons, dill, smoked sturgeon or salmon, cream cheese crispy capers and pickled onions.

Slice bagel and sear on a frying pan with butter or toast in the oven or toaster.

Start plating by adding cream cheese, sturgeon, pickled onions, capers, and dill and finish with lemon zest.

This recipe will surely impress those breakfast or brunch guests of yours!
