PRESENTATION

Recipe by
Lulù Gargari

Salmon and Avocado Toast starts with a shopping rule: the shorter the ingredient list, the more genuine the product. That principle, laid out by nutritionist Laura Crugnola on the vodcast Il piatto bilanciato, is what put smoked salmon at the center of this dish — its minimal label makes it one of the cleanest proteins you can buy, and chef Lulù Gargari built the recipe around that fact.

The base is a thick, sturdy slice of toasted bread, heartier than bruschetta, and it holds smoked salmon and avocado in a combination that's nutritionally balanced without requiring much effort. It works equally well for a relaxed Sunday brunch or a light lunch that still feels like a full meal.
