Ingredients

Instructions

  • Blend softened cream cheese with chopped dill and lemon juice.
  • Spread each slice of bread with a thin layer of butter, then a thicker layer of cream cheese.
  • Place a layer of smoked salmon on top of the bread. Don't worry about getting to close to the edge since you'll be trimming the crusts.
  • If not serving right away, cover with plastic wrap and a damp cloth and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Slice off crusts and cut sandwiches into fingers or triangles. Garnish with a caper and a small sprig of dill.

Notes

For Danish open faced sandwiches:
  • Spread each slice of bread with a thin layer of butter, cream cheese and dill sauce. 
  • Top each slice of bread with a layer of smoked salmon.
  • Garnish with additional dill sauce, caper and fresh dill sprig.
For a closed smoked salmon sandwich:
  • Assemble as you would the tea sandwiches, add micro greens and thin slices of cucumber if desired. 
  • Don't trim the crusts.
