Ingredient substitutions

Sourdough

Thick sourdough slice: Use the same total weight for similar texture and protein balance.

Cottage cheese

Low fat cottage cheese: Blend until smooth for the same whipped spread effect.

Smoked salmon

Cold smoked salmon: Keep chilled until assembly for the cleanest deli style flavor.

Cucumber

Seedless cucumber: Use thin slices so the toast stays easy to bite.

Dill

Fresh dill: Use tender fronds and chop just before serving.

Salt

Fine salt: Use sparingly because smoked salmon is already salty.
