Step-by-Step Professional Preparation
-
Making the base cream: Blend the white asparagus (including its juice), the well-drained cans of tuna, and the mayonnaise with a blender until you get a smooth, homogeneous cream.
-
First layer assembly: Arrange a layer of wholemeal sliced bread on a tray. If there are gaps, tear up the necessary slices to cover them completely. Spread some of the asparagus and tuna cream over the bread.
-
Salmon layer: Cover the entire surface of the cream with the smoked salmon slices.
-
Second layer of bread and vegetable filling: Place another layer of wholemeal sliced bread and cover again with the cream. On top of this, add the surimi sticks cut into thin slices and the carrots, previously grated.
-
Final layer: Place the last layer of sliced bread and spread the remaining cream over the top and along the sides if you want a more even finish.
-
Salad garnish: Finely shred the well-washed and dried lettuce into julienne strips, and spread it over the entire surface of the cake along with the cooked corn.
-
Chilling: Cover the cake and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving so that the bread soaks well and the cake firms up.
Nutritionist Tips
This cake is an excellent source of fiber thanks to the use of wholemeal sliced bread, which gives it great satiety power. By using seafood ingredients such as salmon and tuna, we add healthy fatty acids that are beneficial for the heart.
A secret to making this dish a huge success is to prepare it the day before; the moisture from the cream will soak into the bread, giving it an exceptionally juicy texture. If you want to adjust the flavor of the topping salad without adding sodium, use a pinch of Bonsalt 0%.
Go ahead and make this recipe and enjoy a refreshing, healthy dinner with your friends or family!
