Starter with Burren Cold Smoked Salmon on Sourdough Bread

Starters don’t need to be complicated to please. Quite the opposite – simplicity is king, and when you get the presentation right, you are on to a winner! As the saying goes, we eat with our eyes. The quantities depend on the amount of bread you use. We owe this recipe and the short video to Bord Bía, the Irish Food Marketing Board.
