Method

  1. 1

    Finely crumble the bread, for example in a food processor. Melt the butter and add it to the bread crumbs, mixing until smooth. Spread the bread mixture onto the bottom of a greased springform pan (ø 22–24 cm) lined with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Grate the cucumber and place it in a sieve to drain, pressing out the excess liquid. Save the cucumber juice. Finely mince the garlic cloves. Soak the gelatin leaves in cold water.

  3. 3

    Scrape the yogurt into a large mixing bowl. Crumble the feta and mix it into the yogurt. Add the cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, and honey, and mix until smooth.

  4. 4

    Heat 1/2 dl of the drained cucumber juice until boiling. Squeeze out the excess water from the gelatin leaves, add them to the hot juice, and stir until dissolved.

  5. 5

    Add the gelatin mixture to the yogurt in a thin stream, stirring constantly. Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the surface with a spoon. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to set overnight.

  6. 6

    Slice the remaining half cucumber into thin ribbons using a cheese plane. Halve the salmon slices if necessary. Roll the salmon and cucumber slices into rosettes. Decorate the cake with the salad mix, cucumber, and salmon. Finish with sprouts.
