Bruschetta with salmon
Description
Works for a special occasion or any day. To save effort and time before a holiday, buy lightly salted sliced salmon at a shop or supermarket along with sliced baguette or white loaf. If you like, you can buy ready-made fried portion-sized croutons. Choose pitted olives or black olives, and you can easily swap cherry tomatoes for fresh cucumber. Remember to serve the bruschetta as soon as you’ve put the topping on, before the bread goes soggy. You can serve them warm or chilled.

Step 1
Prepare the listed ingredients. To avoid slicing the baguette yourself, buy it already sliced, as well as sliced lightly salted salmon.

Step 2
Heat a skillet and place baguette slices on it; fry over medium heat for 1–2 minutes on each side. If you want moister bases, add a little vegetable oil to the skillet or melt a pat of butter on it and fry the bread slices in the fat. Cool them completely for at least 10 minutes.

Step 3
Put the processed cheese into a piping bag or a bag and pipe it onto the toasted bread base from one side. If you like cheese with add-ins, first mix in chopped dill, spices, seasonings, and so on.

Step 4
Cut lightly salted salmon into small cubes and place it on the other edge of the bread base. You do not need to dice the salmon finely—you can roll the slices into a rose shape or simply arrange them in small strips.
