Classic combos are classic because the flavors go well together! Dill, cucumber, and smoked fish are combined with a bit of lemon to perk things up. Small pieces of smoked trout would be a good substitute for the salmon in this pretty, easy, no-cook hors d'oeuvre.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, firm cucumbers, thinly sliced smoked salmon, and creamy avocado. Opt for a good quality mayonnaise, and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Prepare the cucumbers properly: Slice the cucumbers thinly and evenly, using a sharp knife or mandoline. To remove excess moisture, pat the cucumber slices dry with paper towels before assembling the sandwiches.
  • Layer the ingredients carefully: Start with a layer of smoked salmon, followed by a layer of cucumber slices, avocado slices, and a spread of mayonnaise. Repeat the layers until you reach the desired height.
  • Season to taste: Add a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper to each layer. You can also add a sprinkle of salt if desired, but be careful not to over-season.
  • Chill the sandwiches before serving: This helps the flavors to meld and makes the sandwiches easier to handle.
