How To Make smoked-salmon sandwiches with red onion relish

Step 1

Mix cream cheese, chives, creme fraiche and dill in medium bowl. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate).

Step 2

Mix red onions, sugar, and vinegar in another medium bowl. Let stand 10 minutes.
Step 3

Spread each bread slice with about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture to cover. Divide salmon among 16 bread slices. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon red onion mixture atop salmon on each bread slice.
Step 4

Top each of 8 salmon-topped bread slices with another salmon-topped bread slice, salmon side up. Top each stack with 1 cheese-covered bread slice, cheese side down, forming a total of 8 three-layer sandwiches. Cut each sandwich diagonally into quarters. (Can be made 1 hour ahead. Cover with clean, damp cloth and chill).
