Smoked Salmon Pizza – The Way My Mother Never Made It

“Pizza!” you may be saying with increduility as you wonder at the seeming incongruity of providing pizza recipes on a sandwich blog.  Well, please bear with us while we provide this rather plausible and very convincing rationale.

In Scandinavia, there is a long tradition of open-faced sandwiches (or smørrebrød as they are called in Denmark).   Open-faced sandwiches are essentially bread, with layered toppings. So it’s not much of a stretch to call a pizza, a sandwich.  After all, it is just that: bread with layered toppings.  For the pizza purists among the readers, this might seem like too much of a stretch, but we say that pizza by any other name is still an open faced sandwich.  Convinced yet?

When all you want is a quick snack, this is a tasty in-between meals treat. The yogurt cheese and the capers make a nice pairing for the smoked salmon, and that’s really all there is to it. Very easy to make if you are hosting a party, or have friends dropping by, as long as you have prepared the yogurt for the yogurt cheese the day before.
