Smoked Salmon Sandwich

I am a sandwich queen. Whereas some folks pick up habits in the street, I inherited this trait honestly, directly from my Father. Whatever Mom made for dinner, meatloaf or baked chicken invariably it would end up between two pieces of pillowy pumpernickel or corn rye bread from a venerable Jewish institution, Grossman’s Bakery, RIP. My Smoked Salmon Sandwich would have be terrific paired with homemade bread like this amazing pan sabao.
My paternal grandmother Nana made all types of savory and sweet baked goods, Beer and Monkey Bread, Parker House Rolls, Lemon Glazed Pound Cakes and Pineapple Coconut Cake, so perhaps that’s why Dad loved bread. He was weaned on the pureness.
I don’t consider myself a baker nor a barbecuer, I am going to start dabbling a bit more into both arenas soon, so use the best of both you can find and make yourself a nice sandwich today. Here’s how:
Smoked Salmon Sandwich
- Bread (I usually just use 1 piece, now)
- Wild Caught Smoked Salmon
- Homemade Hummus (made from my leftover Navy Beans)
- Curtido or Kimchi or some other pickled vegetables
- Organic Green Leaf Lettuce or Spinach
- Organic Red Onions
Place everything on the bread and you’re done!
Made this for a quick lunch with leftover smoked salmon and I will be making this again! Such great flavors.
Thank you Kim! Nothing is better than a fast flavorful meal.
My daughter and I are suckers for anything that includes smoked salmon. I had some of my kimchi in the fridge so I used that and when I tell you eyes were rolling in delight, I mean it. This will be a regular dish in our home, for sure!
Smoked salmon and kimchi are meant to be. Thank you Marta!
I loved the flavors of this sandwich. Smoked salmon is a favorite of mine and I’ll definitely make this again!
Smoked salmon is terrific especially when paired with my homemade hummus. Thanks Brittany!
The collective flavor of this sandwich is mind blowing! I would have never thought to add kimchi to smoke salmon but the two pair together quite nicely!
Thank you Marcus, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
As long as it has salmon, I’m in!!! This was such an enjoyable sandwich and my favorite to have after my workouts!
What a nice way to treat yourself – thanks Kaluhi!
The flavours of this salmon sandwich are incredible! I am making it again tomorrow for lunch and I am so excited, I can’t wait!
It is addicting. Thank you Kate!
I’ve never had smoked salmon paired with hummus before this recipe, but it was a match made in heaven! Thank you for sharing – I will definitely be making it again.
I first had it in the 1990s, at a high end restaurant in Philadelphia. My version is quite different – that sandwich was on pumpernickel bread – but both are fantastic. Glad you liked it Geo!
I love the hummus on this sandwich–would not have thought of this combo on my own. Thank you!
I credit the 90s Philly restaurant whose name I don’t remember for the combo. Thanks Jazz!
This smoked salmon sandwich was so quick to make and it came out delicious! I plan to take this to lunch tomorrow for work.
I’ve taken it for lunch too Jen! Glad you approve.
Your recipe brought a touch of gourmet to my lunch routine. It’s oh so delicious!!! The perfectly smoked salmon, combined with the creamy spread and fresh veggies, created a symphony of flavors that left me craving more. I never thought a sandwich could be this sophisticated and satisfying. Just so good!! xx
You’re so kind Camille! Thank you.
I love smoked salmon. I typically only eating on a bagel but I’m definitely going to try it on a sandwich. I’m always looking for other ways to enjoy it.
Smoked salmon is quite versatile. Thanks Bianca!
