Caught in the cold clear waters off Alaska and Canada, our wild pink salmon is packed with flavour and nutrition. The salmon is skinless and boneless, making it incredibly convenient to add to your favourite pasta dish or salad for a boost of protein and omega-3.
Step 1
To prepare this classic, super-savoury salmon sarnie in around just ten minutes start by buttering all four slices of wholemeal bread and putting to one side. In a small bowl mix the ready-to-use Skinless & Boneless John West salmon, then season to taste with salt, pepper, mayonnaise and mustard. Spread this mouthwatering mixture thickly on 2 slices of buttered bread.
Step 2
Now top with sliced cucumber, season again with a dash of salt and pepper and lightly drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Add the 2 remaining slices of bread, press down gently with your fingers and cut the salmon sandwich into neat triangles. To make your salmon and cucumber sandwiches a little daintier and even more traditional, you can also cut the crusts off before you serve. ‘More tea vicar?’
