CUCUMBER SANDWICH RECIPE

Steps:

• Peel the cucumber, and slice it thinly. I used a simple OXO slicer for quick, even slices.
• Spread soft/room temperature cream cheese on two slices of bread.
• Arrange the cucumber slices, overlapping slightly, on one slice of bread and top with the other.
• Slice off the edges with a sharp serrated knife, wiping with a damp paper towel after each cut. Next, cut into fingers (or triangles). Whether you cut them into fingers or triangles, you'll end up with two finger sandwiches.
• If you need to make cucumber sandwiches ahead of time, keep them in a sealed container with a paper towel inside for a few hours, and refrigerate them.

CUCUMBER AND BUTTER TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Use a mandolin to cut cucumber into very thin slices. Lay slices on paper towels to drain.
• Spread a little butter on each slice of bread. Sprinkle the slices with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Layer overlapping cucumber slices on bread slices.
• Cut crust off sandwiches and then cut sandwiches into quarters.

CUCUMBER SANDWICHES WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, cut the cucumber into thin slices and place them on a paper towel. You will need about 18 cucumber slices. Salt the cucumber lightly and cover with a paper towel. Let stand for 20 minutes so that any excess moisture is absorbed.
• In a small bowl or a blender, combine the butter with the chopped dill. Using a small spatula, lightly spread the dill butter on each slice of bread. Be sure to butter the bread all the way to the edges so that the slices stay moist and don't curl.
• Place 9 or more cucumber slices on one slice of bread, layering them in 3 rows. Top with a second slice of bread. Using a serrated knife, cut the sandwich diagonally to create two triangles. Repeat, using the remaining cucumber slices and slices of bread.
