Ingredients

  • 170 g Atlantic salmon gravlax or sliced smoked sockeye
  • 1 baguette, sliced thin and toasted
  • 150 g crème fraîche or cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp capers, drained
  • Dill, lemon zest, cracked pepper

Method

  1. 01

    Toast the baguette slices with a light brush of oil until crisp at the edges but still chewy in the middle.

  2. 02

    Spread each with crème fraîche.

  3. 03

    Drape a slice of gravlax over the top — folded, not flat, so it catches the light.

  4. 04

    Scatter capers and dill, then finish with lemon zest and pepper.

From the counter: Slice gravlax at a low angle with a long thin knife and let it come up from fridge-cold for 10 minutes first.
