Ingredients
  • 1-1/4 pounds fresh or frozen skinless salmon fillets
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 11/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 3 tablespoons capers, drained and chopped
  • 2 teaspoons finely shredded lemon peel
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 24 slices very thinly sliced or thinly sliced firm-textured white sandwich bread, crusts removed*
  • 2 cups loosely packed watercress tops (thick stems discarded), rinsed and dried
  • Sliced pimiento-stuffed olives (optional)

Directions
  1. Thaw fish, if frozen. Measure thickness of fish fillets. Add 1-1/2 cups water to a large skillet. Bring to boiling. Add fish fillets. Return to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 4 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness, or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
  2. With slotted spatula, lift salmon to a plate lined with several thicknesses of white paper toweling.
  3. Allow salmon to cool for 15 minutes. Remove paper toweling; cover salmon with plastic wrap and chill for 4 hours.
  4. Combine mayonnaise, yogurt, onion, capers, lemon peel, and salt; set aside. Remove any dark flesh from chilled salmon.
  5. Flake salmon and add to the mayonnaise mixture; stir with a fork to combine.
  6. Spread each slice of bread with some of the salmon salad. Top half of the slices with watercress. Add remaining slices of bread; spread-side down.
  7. Cut sandwiches in quarters to form squares, rectangles, and/or triangles.
  8. If desired, top each piece with an olive slice and a decorative pick.
