SALMON SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients for the Salmon Salad in a bowl, mixing until well combined.
• Layer the Salmon Salad on sturdy sandwich bread with your toppings of choice.

SALMON FILLET WITH CUCUMBER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium heat. Spray a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil or a doubled-up piece of regular aluminum foil with non-stick cooking spray. Lay salmon fillet out on foil and season with salt and pepper.
• In a mixing bowl, combine mayo, dill and horseradish. Spread mixture over salmon fillet evenly with a rubber spatula. Shingle cucumber slices on top of mayo mixture. Transfer aluminum foil with salmon onto preheated grill and close lid. Cook for 15-20 minutes. Let salmon cool for a few minutes before slicing.

CUCUMBER AND SMOKED SALMON SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Make tartare: In a small bowl, combine salmon, onion, cilantro, jalapeno, and zest. Season with salt and pepper.
• Using a paring knife or vegetable peeler, remove skin on two opposite sides of cucumber. Trim the ends, and cut cucumber crosswise into 48 slices, 1/4 inch thick. Place slices on paper towels to dry.
• Using a butter knife or a small offset spatula, spread about 1/2 teaspoon of creme fraiche on half of the cucumber slices, and then top with a teaspoon of tartare. Place remaining cucumber slices on top, followed by a small dollop of creme fraiche and a piece of lime. Serve immediately, or chill, covered with plastic wrap, up to 1 hour.

SALMON AND CUCUMBER LAYERED SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Flake 1 1/2 pounds freshly poached salmon filet into small pieces. Place in a bowl and mix with 2 tablespoons freshly chopped chives, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 4 tablespoons sour cream. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Peel 1 large English cucumber and halve it the long way. Using a mandoline, cut it into long, thin slices about 1/8 inch thick; set aside. Discard the center with the seeds. Wash and dry a handful of mustard lettuce leaves.
• Butter 1 slice of thin-sliced pumpernickel, onion, or plain white bread. Arrange a single layer of cucumber on it, then top with a flat layer of lettuce. Butter another slice of bread on both sides and place it on top. Top with the salmon, spreading well, but no more than 1/3 inch thick. Butter a final slice of bread and place it over the salmon, butter side down, pressing gently. Using a serrated knife, remove the crusts and slice into rectangles, about 1 1/2 inches wide by 3 inches long. Repeat with another 9 slices of bread.
