What do you need for a salmon cream cheese sandwich
To prepare this crispy sandwich with salmon and cream cheese you need the following ingredients (you can find the correct amounts at the bottom of the blog in the recipe card):
Which cream cheese do you use?
For this recipe, natural cream cheese has been chosen, which you can season yourself with chives, parsley, black pepper, and a few drops of lemon (or lemon zest). If you want to want to keep it more simple, you can also buy herbal cream cheese from Philadelphia, for example instead of using fresh herbs.
If you want lactose-free, use a vegan or lactose-free cream cheese. Or you can use sour cream or cottage cheese, soft goat cheese instead of cream cheese. TIP make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature, therefore it will blend better with the herbs.
