Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Slice the baguette or rye bread into 1 cm (approximately 0.5 inch) thick slices and arrange them on a baking sheet. Lightly toast them in the oven for 5 minutes, or until slightly crispy on the outside but still soft inside.
While the bread is toasting, allow the Polish butter to come to room temperature for easy spreading.
Once the bread slices are toasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Generously spread a layer of Polish butter on each slice of bread.
Top the buttered slices with thinly sliced radishes and pickled cucumbers. If desired, add a slice of smoked salmon for an extra layer of flavor.
Sprinkle each canape with freshly chopped chives, a pinch of sea salt flakes, and a crack of black pepper to taste.
Serve immediately as a beautiful and delicious appetizer for any occasion.
