2 servings
25 minutes
A sandwich with salmon and arugula is a refined combination of flavors that comes from European cuisine. Light yet rich, it combines the freshness of arugula, the delicate saltiness of salmon, and the spiciness of a mustard-based sauce with capers and herbs. A crispy French baguette serves as the perfect base for this gastronomic delight. This sandwich is great for a quick snack or an exquisite breakfast. Its taste balances between the creamy softness of salmon, the bitterness of arugula, and aromatic notes of greens. It is easy to prepare but impresses with its complex flavor bouquet. An excellent choice for those who appreciate simplicity with a refined touch.
