Preparation

Step 1

Mix wasabi powder and 2 teaspoons water in medium bowl to form paste. Add cream cheese; using electric mixer, beat until well combined.

Place all bread slices on work surface. Spread each with wasabi cream cheese, dividing equally. Top 6 bread slices with smoked salmon, dividing equally. Sprinkle lemon peel, then cilantro over salmon. Top with remaining bread slices, cheese-side down. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Wrap sandwiches individually in paper towels and refrigerate.)

Trim crusts. Cut each sandwich into 4 triangles. Transfer to platter cut side up.
