Lox and Caper Toasts

I spent a year in Germany during college and lived with a host family…or host “Mom.”  She was a great cook (he husband had been French) and she was ecstatic to have someone to cook for (me).  So I was introduced to many new tastes.  One of my all time favorites that she made was lox toasts.  When we lived in Alaska, at least one of our dip-netted salmon was transformed into lox for these toasts.  They are simple perfection.  Yum.
