Smoked Salmon Sandwich at the Empress

I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Empress Hotel in Victoria, BC where they have a lovely tea room. This is one of the recipes used over the years at their Afternoon Tea.

• Ready In: 5 mins
• Serves: 4-8

Ingredients

• 4  slices smoked salmon
• 2  slices  rye bread
• 1  teaspoon cream cheese
• 1  teaspoon mayonnaise
• 1  teaspoon fresh dill
•  salt & pepper

Directions

1. Blend together cream cheese and mayonnaise.
2. Add fresh dill and season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Spread mixture onto a slice of rye bread.
4. Add smoked salmon and top with other slice of rye.
5. Cut off crusts and slice into squares or triangles. Sandwiches should be small for finger food.
6. "If Teapots Could Talk" -- If the cook cuts bread in an uneven fashion, it is said to be a sure sign that lies have been told.
