Yield: 32 sandwiches
Ingredients: 1/2 pound unsalted butter, room temperature; 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic; 1 tablespoon minced scallions (white and green parts); 1 tablespoon minced fresh dill; 1 tablespoon minced fresh flat-leaf parsley; 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice; 1 teaspoon kosher salt; 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper; 1 loaf dense 7-grain or health bread, unsliced; 8 slices smoked salmon

Directions

Watch how to make this recipe.

For the herb butter, combine all the butter ingredients in a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until mixed, but do not whip.
For the sandwiches, have the store slice the bread lengthwise on a meat slicer into 1/4-inch-thick slices. (If that isn't possible, you can slice it crosswise with a very sharp knife.)
Lay out 8 slices of bread and spread them all with a thin layer of herb butter. Place smoked salmon on 4 of the slices. Top with the other 4 slices of bread, butter side down. Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and wrap with plastic. Refrigerate until the butter is very cold. Place the sandwiches on a cutting board. With a very sharp knife, cut off the crusts, cut each large sandwich in half crosswise, and then cut each half diagonally twice to make a total of 8 small triangles. (If the bread was cut crosswise, follow the assembly directions, then cut off the crusts and cut diagonally, twice, to make 4 small triangles.) Serve chilled.
