OPEN FACED SMOKED SALMON SANDWICHES



OPEN FACED SMOKED SALMON SANDWICHES image

Categories     Fish     Appetizer

Yield 16 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lemon
3 oz cream cheese
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1/2 carrot, finely shredded
2 T capers, drained
2 T chopped green onions
2 t chopped fress dill
4 slices whole grain bread
4 oz sliced smoked salmon

Steps:

  • From lemon, grate 1 t peel and squeeze 1 T juice. In medium bowl, combine lemon peel, juice, cream cheese, celery, carrot, capers, onion and chopped dill. Stir to blend. Spread cream cheese mixture on 1 side of each slice of bread; top with smoked salmon. Cute each sandwich into quarters; garnish with dill sprigs.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Fresh, wild-caught salmon is the best choice for this recipe. If you're using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Cook the salmon properly. The salmon should be cooked until it is just opaque in the center. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality bread. A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or rye, will hold up well to the salmon and toppings.
  • Don't skimp on the toppings. The toppings are what make this sandwich special. Be generous with the avocado, cream cheese, and capers.
  • Serve the sandwiches immediately. These sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make them ahead of time, assemble them just before serving.
