Ingredients:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
120g
1 tbsp mustard
16g
1 tbsp lemon juice
5g
salt & pepper to taste
2 baguettes (french bread)
170g
8 oz salmon
230g
1/2 red onion
80g
1 tbsp watercress

Instructions:

- In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of mustard, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly blended into a smooth dressing.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Baguettes:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Slice the baguettes in half lengthwise. Optionally, you can lightly toast them in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes or until they are slightly crisp. This adds extra texture to the sandwich.
3. Assemble the Baguettes:
- Spread a generous amount of the prepared mustard dressing on the bottom half of each baguette.
- Layer the smoked salmon evenly over the mustard dressing.
- Top the smoked salmon with thinly sliced red onion.
- Add the watercress on top of the red onion for a fresh, peppery bite.
4. Finishing Touches:
- Place the top half of the baguette over the layered ingredients.
- Cut each baguette into halves or thirds for easier handling if desired.
5. Serve:
- Serve the smoked salmon baguettes immediately. Enjoy them as a refreshing lunch or a sophisticated appetizer.

Tips:

- Use high-quality, freshly baked baguettes for the best texture and flavor.

- Smoked salmon varies in saltiness; taste your salmon before adding extra salt to the dressing.

- If you prefer a tangier dressing, you can increase the amount of lemon juice.

- Thinly slice the red onion for a subtle crunch without overwhelming the other flavors.

- For a more luxurious touch, you can add a layer of cream cheese to the baguette before adding the other ingredients.

- Serve with a side of mixed greens or a light, crisp salad for a complete meal.
