Tips
- Always toast the bagel, otherwise the crust stays rubbery and the inside heavy.
- Slice the smoked salmon thinly and don't cook it: it's best cold.
- If you have no capers, finely chopped gherkin works, though it tastes a little different.
- The finished sandwich doesn't keep well because the bagel goes soft, so assemble it just before eating.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a bagel and a bread roll?
A bagel is boiled in hot water before baking, so it turns dense, chewy and shiny-crusted, while a bread roll is fluffy and airy.
Can it be made without salmon?
Yes: cream cheese with tomato and cucumber, or egg and avocado, are also classics.
