# Steps:

01 - Combine softened cream cheese, chopped fresh dill, chopped fresh chives, lemon juice, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly until completely smooth and evenly incorporated.
02 - Place tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Distribute the cream cheese mixture evenly across the entire surface of each tortilla, extending to the edges.
03 - Arrange smoked salmon slices in a single, even layer over the cream cheese coating, ensuring complete coverage from edge to edge.
04 - Starting from one edge, roll each tortilla tightly to create a compact log shape, applying gentle pressure to maintain structural integrity.
05 - Wrap the completed rolls securely in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes to firm texture for cleaner slicing.
06 - Remove rolls from refrigerator and unwrap. Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 1-inch thick slices. Arrange pieces on a serving platter. Garnish with additional fresh dill or chives if desired. Serve chilled.
