See the ingredient checklist
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (plus more to season avocado)
  • 3 Persian cucumbers (coarsely chopped)
  • 1 avocado (coarsely chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped pickled ginger
  • kosher salt (to taste)
  • 4 oz ready-to-eat smoked salmon (torn into bite-size pieces)
  • 4 slices country-style bread (lightly toasted)
  • toasted sesame seeds (for serving)
  • seasoned toasted seaweed snacks (for serving)

Keep the topping gently mixed

Fold rather than stir vigorously so the avocado and salmon remain in distinct pieces. A little dressing goes a long way over the finished toast.

At the table

Serve one generously topped toast per person, with extra spicy mayo on the side.

Notes

Use ready-to-eat smoked salmon. The citrus dressing adds flavor; it does not cook raw fish.
Assemble close to serving so the toast stays crisp and the avocado holds its shape.
