Cooking Instructions!
Prepare the ingredients according to the list.
It's better to buy bread for sandwiches with a small stock so that you can vary the amount of filling according to your taste if necessary.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees for heating.
Cut the baguette into slices about 1 cm thick.
Place the pieces of bread in a single layer on a baking sheet or in a baking dish.
Place the bread in the preheated oven and dry for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. The bread should be slightly browned and acquire a crispy crust on the outside, but remain soft inside. If the oven has a grill, you can use it or place the baking sheet closer to the oven's heating element.
Wash and dry the dill. Set aside 1 sprig of dill to decorate the sandwiches. Chop the remaining dill.
Combine the cottage cheese, chopped dill, and a pinch of black pepper. Squeeze 2-3 drops of lemon juice into the mixture. Mix well. There is no need to salt the mixture since the salty taste of the salmon will give the sandwiches a salty flavor.
Spread the resulting mixture evenly on the surface of the toasted bread slices. You can adjust the thickness of the cheese mixture layer to taste. I made a layer of about 0.5-0.7 mm - this makes 8 sandwiches.
Cut the lightly salted salmon into thin slices and place on the cream cheese sandwiches.
Slice the pickled cucumber thinly.
Decorate the sandwiches with cucumber slices.
Add a small sprig of dill to each sandwich as a decoration.
Place the cream cheese and salmon sandwiches on a serving plate and serve.
Enjoy your meal!
