3 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons finely grated zest and 1 tablespoon juice from 1 whole lemon
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
2 tablespoons cured black olives, pitted and minced

1/4 cup creme fraiche
1 1/2 tablespoons capers, drained

4 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
4 large radishes, trimmed and thinly sliced

Directions

Finely chop eggs. In medium bowl, combine eggs, mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, and olives. Break eggs with hands or a potato masher until no pieces larger than 1/4-inch remain. Season to taste with salt and pepper. In second bowl, combine crème fraîche, capers, lemon zest, and dill. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
