Smoked Salmon Sandwiches With Cucumber, Radish and Herbs image

For these elegant open-faced smoked salmon sandwiches, use a good quality Pullman loaf or a dense brown bread. Choose the best sweet butter you can find (think French) and don't stint; the combination of buttered bread, smoked salmon and herbs is ethereal. Thinly sliced cucumber and radish add color, along with the briny pop of salmon caviar.

1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions, cut on the diagonal
1 cup thinly sliced cucumber (about 3 mini cucumbers)
1 small watermelon radish, sliced paper thin
Salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
6 slices Pullman loaf, or other bread
Unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 ounces smoked salmon (about 4 large slices)
Snipped tarragon or dill leaves, or, preferably, a combination
1 1/2 ounces cured salmon roe (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine scallions, cucumber and radish. Season with salt and pepper and toss with lemon zest.
  • Lay bread slices on a work surface and butter each generously. Divide salmon among 6 slices. Top salmon with cucumber and radish mixture. Sprinkle generously with tarragon and dill.
  • Cut each slice in half diagonally. Cut off crusts if you wish, but it's not necessary. Garnish with a small spoonful of salmon roe.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover smoked salmon. I had some leftover from a brunch and I didn't want it to go to waste. This sandwich was the perfect solution. It was quick and easy to make, and it was really tasty.

I love smoked salmon and this sandwich is a great way to enjoy it. The cucumber and radish add a refreshing crunch, and the herbs give it a nice pop of flavor. I'll definitely be making this again.
