Toast with green butter and salmon
4 servings
30 minutes
Toast with green butter and salmon is a harmony of flavors and sophistication. This recipe draws inspiration from European cuisine, combining the tenderness of lightly salted salmon, the aroma of fresh herbs, and the creaminess of butter. Dill and cilantro add a special zest to the butter, while garlic adds a subtle hint of spice. Crispy bread soaked in aromatic green butter contrasts beautifully with the softness of salmon and cream cheese. A light salad with capers, sweet pepper, and cherry tomatoes complements the dish with freshness. These toasts are an ideal choice for an elegant breakfast, a light snack, or a stylish aperitif.
