Stir to dissolve the sugar and salt then stir in the vinegar. Taste and add a little more sugar or vinegar to get the level of sweet/tartness you like. Finely chop the red onion (or slice thinly into rings if preferred) and stir into the pickling liquor. Set aside in the fridge to cool while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.2Step 2: Flavour the cream cheese: Put the cream cheese in a small bowl and add the herbs. Add 2/3 of the lemon zest, squeeze in the juice of 1/2 the lemon and add a large pinch of pepper. Stir together then taste: add more lemon zest, juice or pepper plus a small pinch of salt if you think it needs it. Set aside the rest of the lemon zest and juice for the garnish.3Step 3: Make the open sandwiches: Spread the slices of bread generously with butter. Divide the flavoured cream cheese between the slices, spreading it over the butter. Place 6 - 8 slices of cucumber on each piece of bread, on top of the cream cheese. Divide the salmon between the slices of bread and drape it over the cucumber. Drain the red onion from its pickling liquor and sprinkle some of the onion over each sandwich along with the capers. Top with any or all the garnishes (herbs, zest, black pepper) and serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over plus the rocket and sliced radishes on the side.4Step 4: Best eaten straight away, although sandwiches should be fine in the fridge for roughly 2 hours.getsaucepan.com/r/2cf4a46c-2ea6-4cb9-8c53-de7121402430 · Original: https://moorlandseater.com/smoked-salmon-smorrebrod-scandinavian-open-sandwich/
