Open sandwiches, three ways
Dark rye, good butter and no stove required.
By Ingrid Solberg · 4 min read
The open sandwich is the north's great lazy lunch: one slice of dense rye, generously buttered, and topped with whatever's good that day. Eat it with a knife and fork.
Three favourites: boiled egg with chives and a little mayonnaise; thin-sliced cucumber, radish and soft cheese with dill; and smoked fish with lemon and cracked pepper.
Stop at three toppings. Eat outside.
The rules are simple. Use good bread, be generous with the butter, and stop at three toppings. Eat outside if you possibly can.
