Smoked Mackerel on an Open-faced Sandwich
Smoked mackerel on a slice of Danish rye bread is a real summer treat for me. My mom always bought smoked mackerel or herring for our weekend lunches in the summer period. And we all loved it. So I was very excited, when I finally found smoked mackerel from Ducktrap River of Maine (not smoked pepper mackerel) at my local Whole Foods. Of cause this is not the same as getting a freshly smoked whole mackerel, but its pretty close in taste, but a bit firmer in texture.
Serves 2
Ingredients:
- 1 pack 7-oz mackerel fillet
- 2 slices of Danish rye bread
- 2 radishes, in slices
- chives, finely cut
- Butter, optional
Directions:
Spread some butter on the bread. Remove the skin from the fish, and cut the fish, so it fits the bread-slices. Top the sandwich with radishes and chives.
Enjoy your sandwich with a glass of cold milk or with a cold beer!
