Take a bite of true Icelandic tradition with this open-faced salmon sandwich covered with creamy Skyr, smoked salmon and a sprinkle of fresh dill. Enjoy on homemade Icelandic lava bread baked and buried in the sand of a volcanic beach. Or, in this case, baked in a slow cooker – it will almost do the same job.

Instructions

Preparation

Lava bread:

1. Gather the ingredients.
2. Whisk together the rye flour, all-purpose flour, and salt in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
3. Mix in the brown sugar.
4. Stir the molasses into the scalded lukewarm milk until it dissolves. Stir yeast into the lukewarm milk.
5. Then slowly stir the milk into the dry ingredients (the dough hook of a mixer works well).
6. Knead the dough until it is shiny, and all the flour is incorporated. Divide into 2 portions.
7. Butter the insides of a 3-4 liter pot.
8. Pour the bread dough into the pot and cover with a lid.
9. Bake the dough in a preheated oven at 180oC for about 50 min (core temperature of 95oC)

Topping:

1. Spread a generous amount of Arla Skyr on a slice of bread
2. Add a slice of smoked salmon and top off with a dill to your liking and fresh pepper.

Enjoy!
