Bread with sprats and pickles - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use sardines, anchovies, or even smoked salmon for a different flavor profile while maintaining a similar texture.
Store it covered in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The bread may soften, so assemble closer to serving for the best texture.
Replace sprats with sliced marinated artichokes or roasted bell peppers for a delicious vegetarian version.
Yes, the paste can be prepared 1-2 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
Crusty baguettes or sourdough slices are ideal, but any sturdy bread that won't get too soggy will work.
Freezing is not recommended as the texture of the bread and sprats will deteriorate upon thawing.
Add a pinch of chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the paste for an extra kick.
Try dill, chives, or thinly sliced radishes for added color and flavor contrast.
Fresh cucumbers will work but will provide a milder flavor. If using fresh, consider adding a splash of vinegar for tang.
