Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large baguette
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 200 grams smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.5 whole lemon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 100 grams mixed salad greens
Instructions
Slice the large baguette into four equal pieces and then slice each piece horizontally to create sandwich-style halves.
Spread a generous layer of cream cheese evenly on the bottom halves of the baguette slices.
Place an equal portion of smoked salmon on top of the cream cheese layer.
Rinse the capers under cold water to remove excess salt and sprinkle them evenly over the smoked salmon.
Chop the fresh dill finely and scatter it over the capers and salmon.
Finely slice the half red onion and distribute the slices evenly over the salmon and dill.
Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the prepared toppings, ensuring an even distribution of acidity.
Drizzle a thin stream of olive oil over everything to enhance the flavor and texture.
Season each baguette half with salt and black pepper to taste.
Top with a handful of mixed salad greens for a fresh, crunchy texture.
Place the top half of the baguette slices over the prepared bottoms to complete the sandwich.
Serve immediately, either whole for hearty bites or sliced diagonally for easy sharing as appetizers.
