Open-Faced Egg Salad Sandwich With Bacon

It's important to know what a specific loaf of bread can and cannot do. So when I got my hands on the astonishing crusty bread, I decided to be as simple as possible, whipping up a straightforward batch of egg salad, and serving the result as an open-faced sandwich.

Smoked Salmon and Dill Tea Sandwiches

Throughout Britain and many of its colonies, tea is often served in the mid-afternoon as a quick bite between the midday and evening meal. Tea sandwiches as well as pastries, breads, butter, jams and small confections are served. Traditionally tea sandwiches are cold, two-bite sandwiches; some of the most common are egg salad, watercress, and smoked salmon. This version of the classic salmon tea sandwich uses a cream cheese with dill along with some red onion to brighten up the sandwich.

Anchovy, Basil, and Tomato Sandwiches With Aioli

Rustic Italian bread slathered with garlic aioli and layered with fresh basil, sliced tomatoes, and a sprinkling of capers all make for a great match with anchovy fillets—almost like a Provencal BLT of sorts with the salty anchovies subbing in for the bacon, and basil in place of the lettuce.

Egg sandwich

Soft boiled eggs make the best egg sandwich. The creamy yolk practically makes its own homemade mayonnaise!

Avocado Toast With Smoked Salmon, Goat Cheese, and Capers

This bagel-and-lox-inspired open-faced sandwich combines avocado and smoked salmon, cut through with tomatoes, capers, and thinly sliced rounds of red onion. Goat cheese takes the place of cream cheese for extra tang, while a squeeze of lemon juice and a little fresh black pepper bring everything into balance.

Basil Egg Salad - Striped Spatula

Basil Egg Salad is a delicious and unique twist on a classic. Hard boiled eggs are combined with a garlic, lemon, and basil-infused mayo for a flavorful sandwich or appetizer.

Roasted Yam and Radicchio Sandwiches

A sandwich packed with vegetables that's so filling and flavorful, it will satisfy even the most sharp-fanged of carnivores. Roasted yams—sweet, smoky, and spicy—with tahini mayonnaise, cheese, and toasted walnuts for added crunch.

Salmon Burgers With Rémoulade and Fennel Slaw

Most salmon burgers fail to deliver on their promise, but not these: These are tender and juicy with a crispy, crunchy exterior that yields to medium-rare deliciously seasoned salmon within. Served on soft toasted brioche buns that are spread with a creamy rémoulade sauce and topped with a fresh fennel and radicchio slaw, the potential of a salmon burger has finally been realized.

The Best Egg Salad

Perfectly cooked boiled eggs, homemade mayo, bright lemon juice, crunchy celery, and some fresh parsley make for a near-perfect egg salad.

Avocado Toast With Radishes, Baby Peas, and Fresh Herbs

Springtime flavors come together in this open-faced sandwich of rich and creamy avocado, peppery radishes, and sweet baby peas. A squeeze of lemon adds acidity, and freshly chopped basil gives it a fragrant, herbal touch.
