RADISH SANDWICHES

Steps:

• For the filling, finely chop the radishes in the food processor (or hand grater). Place in a large sieve or colander. Press with paper towels to drain and squeeze out any excess liquid.
• Cream the cream cheese and butter together until fluffy (I used the food processor); add drained chopped radishes, parsley, chives, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and cream again.
• Cut crusts from bread and cut into small squares or rounds. Spread with filling, and garnish with sliced or whole radishes coated with coarse salt.
• Chill thoroughly before serving.

OPEN-FACE BUTTER AND RADISH SANDWICHES

Steps:

HERBED CHEESE CUCUMBER AND RADISH TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Combine the cream cheese, goat cheese, butter, Parmesan, lemon juice and garlic in a small food processor and process until very smooth and light. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the chives, parsley and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled but still spreadable, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spread the bread on a baking sheet and bake, flipping the pieces once, until lightly toasted but not colored, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
• To serve, spread the cheese mixture on the toasts. Top with the sliced cucumber and radishes and garnish with dill sprigs.

RADISH SANDWICHES WITH BUTTER AND SALT

Steps:

• Slice the baguette lengthwise and then crosswise, creating four quarters. Spread butter on the tops and bottoms of each quarter and sprinkle with salt. Pile sliced radishes onto the bottoms, then lay the arugula on top of them and sprinkle with the herbs. Top the sandwiches and press them down firmly.
• Serve as is, cut into small sandwiches for hors d'oeuvres, or wrap for lunch.
