Quick Smoked Salmon Tea Sandwiches are a delightful and elegant appetizer, perfect for tea parties, brunches, or as a light snack. With creamy cream cheese, fresh dill, smoked salmon, and crisp cucumber, these sandwiches offer a burst of fresh, savory flavors.

Ingredients

8 ounces softened cream cheese

3 tablespoons fresh dill

1 baguette

8 ounces smoked salmon

1 cucumber

Instructions

  1. Begin by slicing the cucumber into thin, even slices. Set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and fresh dill. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  3. Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  4. Spread a generous layer of the dill-infused cream cheese mixture onto each slice of baguette.
  5. Layer the smoked salmon evenly over the cream cheese.
  6. Top the smoked salmon with cucumber slices.
  7. For a neat presentation, cut the sandwiches into small, bite-sized pieces (you can cut them into quarters or halves, depending on your preference).
  8. Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

Add a twist of lemon: For a citrusy kick, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the smoked salmon before adding the cucumber.

Use different bread: Swap out the baguette for whole grain, rye, or any bread of your choice.

Make it creamy with avocado: Add thin slices of ripe avocado for extra creaminess and texture.

Herb variation: Experiment with other herbs, like chives or parsley, to complement the dill.

Storage: These sandwiches are best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 hours. If storing longer, it’s recommended to keep the components separate until serving to avoid sogginess.

Reheating: No reheating is necessary since these sandwiches are served cold.
