Use scallion, chive, or vegetable-infused cream cheese for an extra layer of flavor.
Include thinly sliced cucumber, avocado, or fresh microgreens on your platter for added freshness and texture.
Swap out plain bagels for pumpernickel, rye, or everything bagels. Bialys or toasted rye bread also work wonderfully.
A fresh grind of black pepper over the cream cheese before adding the fish can enhance the flavors.

This dish provides a significant amount of high-quality protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting muscle mass, and promoting a feeling of fullness.

You can prepare all the components ahead of time. Slice the vegetables, chop the dill, and arrange them on a platter covered with plastic wrap up to a few hours in advance. However, you should only toast the bagels and assemble the sandwiches just before serving for the best texture and temperature.
You can typically find high-quality smoked sable at Jewish delicatessens, specialty seafood markets, gourmet grocery stores, and from reputable online seafood purveyors.
