Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices White sandwich bread
- 250 g Cream cheese
- 100 g Sour cream
- 100 g Mayonnaise
- 150 g Smoked salmon
- 150 g Cooked shrimp
- 1 Cucumber
- 3 Hard-boiled eggs
- 10 g Fresh dill
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 150 g Cold cuts (ham or turkey)
- 4 Radishes
- 6 Cherry tomatoes
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Cut the crusts off the slices of white sandwich bread to create even squares.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper into a smooth spread.
Lay out three slices of bread side-by-side on a serving platter as the base layer.
Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on the first bread layer, then evenly distribute the smoked salmon on top.
Add another layer of bread slices on top of the salmon, pressing gently to adhere.
Spread another thin layer of the cream cheese mixture, then add a layer of cooked shrimp and a few thin slices of cucumber.
Repeat with another layer of bread, spreading more of the cream cheese mixture, and layering with cold cuts (ham or turkey) and sliced hard-boiled eggs.
Add a final layer of bread and cover the entire sandwich cake with the remaining cream cheese mixture, using a spatula to smooth it out evenly.
Garnish the top and sides with lettuce leaves, cherry tomatoes, sliced radishes, and cucumber ribbons. Sprinkle fresh dill generously on top for an elegant finish.
Refrigerate the smörgåstårta for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
