OPEN-FACE SALMON AND AVOCADO SANDWICHES
This is my version of smorrebrod, which is a Scandinavian open-faced sandwich, and translates to "buttered bread," so what's not to like? It can be topped with anything from cold cuts, pieces of meat or fish, cheese, spreads...all that good stuff. Mmm!

- To assemble, dollop the preserved lemon sour cream all over the bread, then top with slices of avocado. Season the avocado with salt. Nestle in the slices of salmon, radishes and cornichons.

SALMON AND AVOCADO SANDWICHES
What a great play of flavors - fresh salmon, fresh lime, smoked salmon, avocado and a bit of onion and tomato for back up all come together for a wonderfully messy, lush sandwich. Sandwiches and bruschette are a great way to serve salmon left over from the night before. Excerpted from Simply Salmon by James Peterson.
