Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Grated zest of 1 lemon
6 tablespoons capers
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
24 thin slices black or pumpernickel bread
14 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced
1 large bunch fresh dill, cleaned and trimmed, tough stems removed

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine butter, lemon juice, zest, capers, and salt. Pulse until combined and most of the capers are broken up, about 15 seconds.
  • Spread a thin layer of caper butter on two slices of bread. Cover one slice with a layer each of salmon and dill sprigs, and top with other bread slice. Use a serrated knife to trim crusts and cut in half diagonally into two triangles. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cover with damp papers towel until ready to serve.

Time 30m

Yield 32 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced scallions (white and green parts)
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1 tablespoon minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 loaf dense 7-grain or health bread, unsliced
8 slices smoked salmon

Steps:

  • For the herb butter, combine all the butter ingredients in a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until mixed, but do not whip.
  • For the sandwiches, have the store slice the bread lengthwise on a meat slicer into 1/4-inch-thick slices. (If that isn't possible, you can slice it crosswise with a very sharp knife.)
  • Lay out 8 slices of bread and spread them all with a thin layer of herb butter. Place smoked salmon on 4 of the slices. Top with the other 4 slices of bread, butter side down. Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and wrap with plastic. Refrigerate until the butter is very cold. Place the sandwiches on a cutting board. With a very sharp knife, cut off the crusts, cut each large sandwich in half crosswise, and then cut each half diagonally twice to make a total of 8 small triangles. (If the bread was cut crosswise, follow the assembly directions, then cut off the crusts and cut diagonally, twice, to make 4 small triangles.) Serve chilled.

SMOKED SALMON AND CAPER TEA SANDWICH



Smoked Salmon and Caper Tea Sandwich image

These trim little sandwiches are an elegant picnic food. They are made with a slick of cream cheese, which holds the sandwiches together and keeps the bread from getting soggy; packed snugly into a box lined with a tea towel spritzed with water, they won't dry out either.
