Smoked Salmon And Caper Tea Sandwich Recipes

SMOKED SALMON TEA SANDWICHES

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

Steps:

• Place cream cheese, red onion, and capers in a medium bowl, and stir with a rubber spatula until well combined.
• Spread each slice of bread with cream cheese mixture. Arrange salmon in a thin layer over the cream cheese; top with a second slice of bread, cream cheese side facing down. Trim crusts; cut sandwiches in half.

LEMON-CAPER BUTTER AND SMOKED SALMON TEA SANDWICHES

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.

SMOKED SALMON AND DILL EGG SALAD TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil the eggs for exactly 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit 10 more minute before draining. Run under cold water and peel the eggs immediately - the shell will come off much more easily while the eggs are still wet and warm.
• Using a box grater, grate the eggs on the shredder side into a bowl. Add the salmon, dill, capers, 1/4 cup of the mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Lay out 7 slices of the bread and spread 1/4 cup of the egg salad onto each slice. Cover with the remaining bread slices. Trim the crust off of all the sandwiches and cut each sandwich crosswise into four triangles.
• Spread the long side of each triangle with a little mayonnaise and dip each one into the chopped chives. Arrange decoratively on a platter.

SMOKED SALMON SANDWICHES WITH CAPERS AND RED ONION RELISH

Steps:

• Mix red onion, sugar, and vinegar in small bowl. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix cream cheese, chives, crème fraîche, dill, and capers in another small bowl. Spread each bread slice with about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture to cover. Divide salmon among 8 bread slices. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon red onion mixture atop salmon on each bread slice. Top each of 4 salmon-topped bread slices with another salmon-topped bread slice, salmon side up. Top each stack with 1 cheese-covered bread slice, cheese side down, forming a total of 4 three-layer sandwiches. Cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
