Delicious & Dainty Smoked Salmon Tea Sandwich Recipe

The variety of tea sandwiches is really limitless. To me the quintessential tea sandwich is the cucumber sandwich, which I shared here {tea sandwich ideas – perfect for the entertaining season}. But this smoked salmon version gives me all the special occasion vibes. It’s perfect for the upcoming Easter holiday, Mother’s Day and other special celebrations.

You could also serve these as an open face option. Here I topped small cocktail bread slices with the creme fraiche and smoked salmon combination, which I topped with capers and red onion for an extra punch.

Another way we have served this is as a build your own toast points. This would be a great option with a similar garnishment board as here {how to create a deviled egg garnish board}.

You can really adapt it to fit your preference from how you build or deconstruct the tea sandwich to the garnishes you offer to the bread selection you choose.
