Smoked Salmon Tartine is a crisp open-faced sandwich layered with creamy cheese, silky smoked salmon, and fresh herbs. Elegant yet simple, it’s perfect for brunch, lunch, or a light dinner.

Ingredients

  • 4 slices rustic sourdough bread or baguette
  • 6 ounces smoked salmon
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese or whipped goat cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons capers, drained
  • 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Toast the sourdough or baguette slices until golden and crisp around the edges. Let cool slightly.
  2. Spread an even layer of cream cheese or whipped goat cheese over each slice.
  3. Arrange smoked salmon evenly on top of the cheese.
  4. Scatter capers and thinly sliced red onion over the salmon.
  5. Sprinkle chopped dill and lemon zest over each tartine.
  6. Finish with freshly ground black pepper and a light drizzle of olive oil.
  7. Serve immediately while the bread remains crisp.

Notes

  • Use multigrain, rye, or ciabatta as alternative bread options.
  • Add thinly sliced cucumber or radishes for extra crunch.
  • Top with a poached or soft-boiled egg for a heartier brunch version.
  • Store components separately in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and assemble before serving.
  • Toast bread well to prevent sogginess.
