Tartine is the French word for open-faced sandwiches.
They can be topped with an array of sweet or savoury ingredients, anything from jams to cheeses, to luxurious combinations of patés and fine charcuterie.
Smoked salmon is one of our favourites. I love these for brunch or lunch and they perfect for hosting too!
