Eye Opening Salmon Sandwiches

"This sandwich has some kind of kick! If you add extra mayo or sour cream, you've got a great salmon dip for crackers."

directions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the salmon, mayo, hot sauce, lemon juice, capers and chives.
  • Have ready 3 slices of pumpernickel bread; place 1/3 of the salmon mixture on each slice of bread.
  • Top each with a lettuce leaf, then remaining slice of bread.
  • Note that a milder hot sauce can be used, but increase the amount then.
  • Dark rye bread is a great substitute for the pumpernickel.

  1. So good! Used scallions instead of chives, Frank's red hot sauce instead of Tabasco and 1/2 a jalapeno pepper chopped up fine. Omitted the lemon juice as I didn't have any and sliced up some cucumbers and threw them onto pumpernickel bread with the spread. Great alternative to other canned salmon recipes i also love.
     
  2. This takes salmon sandwiches to a new level! I substituted 1 tbsp dried chives, spread the mixture on some healthy type bread from the bakery & topped everything with freshly ground pepper. Thanx Lennie!
     
  3. I hardly ever use canned salmon. For some reason, I just don't think of it. This recipe has been in my lunch cookbook for quite a while and I decided to try it. The filling had an understated zesty little kick. I think I could have handled a little more Tabasco and/or pepper for a slightly more pronounced bite. This was great on pumpernickel bread. Thanks for a new brown bag idea.
     
  4. Great sandwich! I often eat salmon doused with sriracha, so this was right down my alley. When I started to make the filling, I realized my chives weren't as fresh as I would have liked, so I subbed green onions. Not being afraid of heat, I used plenty of Tabasco's habanero version. I also added some freshly ground black pepper. Sure glad I doubled the recipe, because my husband and I really loved it--thanks for posting!
     
  5. Wonderful salmon Lennie! I have never had canned salmon with capers in it, but we just loved it. I used two cans of salmon (doubled all other ingredients) and subbed green onions for the chives, Made this in the morning, and let it sit in the fridge for about 6 hours to blend the flavors, This is not your average everyday salmon sandwich, this one has intense flavors going! This will definately be a repeater, just delicious!...Kitten:)
