Time 15m

Yield 8 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound skinless salmon fillet
1 tablespoon lemon juice, more as needed
Salt
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
2 star anise
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup finely shredded Chinese lettuce (also known as celtuce) or romaine
Freshly ground black pepper
16 slices bread, crusts removed

Steps:

  • In a medium skillet, combine salmon fillet, lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, peppercorns and star anise. Add 3/4 cup water, and place over high heat. As soon as water comes to a boil, turn salmon over and turn off heat. Rest for 3 minutes. Using a slotted spatula transfer salmon to a plate to cool.
  • Place salmon in a large bowl, and flake with a fork. Add mayonnaise, ginger and lettuce. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. Toss gently to combine.
  • Place equal portions of salmon mixture on eight slices of bread, and top with remaining eight slices. Cut each sandwich in half. Arrange on a platter, and serve.

I made this recipe for lunch today and it was a quick and easy meal to prepare. I used smoked salmon and it was delicious. I also added a few slices of cucumber for some extra crunch. Will definitely make this again!

This was an okay recipe. The salmon was a bit dry, but the cream cheese mixture was good. I think I would have been better off just making a regular tuna salad sandwich.

This was a delicious and easy recipe to follow! I used everything bagel seasoning instead of salt and pepper, and it gave the sandwiches a nice flavor. I also added some capers for a bit of extra flavor. Thanks for sharing!

This recipe was a bust. The salmon was overcooked and the cream cheese mixture was too runny. I ended up throwing the whole thing away.

This was a tasty and refreshing sandwich! I used fresh dill from my garden and it really made a difference. I also added a few slices of cucumber for some extra crunch. Will definitely make this again!

I was disappointed with this recipe. The salmon was dry and the cream cheese mixture was too thick. I think I would have been better off just making a regular tuna salad sandwich.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it would have been better if I had used a flavored cream cheese spread, or if I had added some spices to the salmon. Otherwise, it was a quick and easy recipe to follow.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit! I love that it's so versatile - I can use different types of bread, salmon, and toppings depending on what I have on hand. It's also a great way to use up leftover salmon. Highly recommen

Great recipe! The salmon sandwiches were a hit at my party. I used a store-bought lemon dill cream cheese spread and it worked out great. I also added some capers for a bit of extra flavor. Thanks for sharing!

This was a delicious and easy recipe to follow! I used smoked salmon instead of fresh, and it turned out perfectly. I also added a bit of chopped dill to the cream cheese mixture, which gave it a nice flavor boost. Will definitely make this again!
