Salmon and Cucumber Pinwheel Sandwich

Ingredients 

• 2 slices of Coupland’s Our Country Harvest Sandwich Bread
• 4 slices wafer-thin smoked salmon
• 3 thin slices of cucumber, same length as a bread slice

• Roll the bread ‘sushi-style’ into two tight rolls. Slice into three pieces and push back together into a roll.

bread limit update

Dear fellow Kiwis, our amazing team members are working around the clock to ensure that we are baking enough delicious baked goods to meet the unprecedented demand we are currently seeing.

 

To ensure we meet the needs of all New Zealanders, we have had to put limits on our bread in some regions.

 

Rest assured, our fresh bread will still be delivered twice daily in the major centers and once a day everywhere else. We are all in this together and there is plenty to go around.
