Smoked salmon avocado toast with egg is a breakfast that is nutritious, as well as delicious. Breakfast is also known as the most important meal of the day, so it should be healthy and tasty.
Smoked salmon originated from the cold waters of the North Atlantic, and was first prepared by the people of North America centuries ago. They discovered that smoking the fish not only preserved it, but it also enhances its flavor. Today, smoked salmon is enjoyed worldwide and is particularly popular in dishes like our “Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast with Egg”.
This particular recipe combines the rich flavors of smoked salmon and creamy avocado and egg, all served on top of a slice of toasted rye bread. The avocado in and of itself, provides a smooth contrast to the smoky flavor of the salmon, while the egg adds a layer of heartiness. Rye bread also has a stronger flavor than regular bread made from wheat flour, making it the perfect addition for this recipe.
No meal is complete without a sauce that ties all the flavors together. This recipe includes a special sauce made with sour cream, wasabi (or horseradish), fresh dill, lemon juice, and lemon zest. This particular sauce adds an extra zing to every bite, and makes this recipe truly unique.
The process of making this recipe involves curing the fish in a brine before it is smoked. This recipe includes a homemade brine that infuses the salmon with flavors from various spices like mustard seeds, black peppercorn, fennel seeds, cloves, coriander seeds, pink peppercorns, chili flakes, cinnamon stick, and bay leaves. This flavorful brine ensures that every bite of the salmon is packed with a flavorful and delicious taste.
