cucumber tea sandwiches

Cucumber Sandwiches are an appetizer must for a tea party, Mother&#039;s Day brunch, baby shower, bridal shower, or any get together. Simple finger food that&#039;s cool, fresh, light, and so delicious!

Cucumber Sandwiches

white sandwich bread ((about 1 loaf), crusts removed)

English cucumber

cream cheese (, softened)

mayonnaise

dill

chives

lemon juice

garlic powder

salt

black pepper (,

Peel the cucumber in stripes and cut into 1/8-inch thin slices using a mandolin or sharp knife. Place the slices on paper towels and sprinkle with coarse salt. Let rest for 15-30 minutes to extract moisture. Pat dry with clean paper towels.

In the meantime, make the spread. In a medium bowl, using a handheld mixer, blend together the softened cream cheese, mayo, dill, chives, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt.

Spread one side of each slice of bread with the herbed cream cheese.

Layer cucumber slices over half of the bread slices. Season with fresh cracked black pepper, to taste. Top with remaining bread slices, cream cheese mixture down. (At this point, you&#039;ll have 8 full sandwiches.)

Using a sharp Chef&#039;s knife, cut each sandwich into quarters, pushing through the bread down to the bottom. So you have 32 tea sandwiches.

Serve right away and enjoy!

Easy cucumber sandwich recipe without cream cheese perfect for parties, picnics, or light lunches! You&#039;ll love the creamy labneh spread with olive oil and plenty of fresh herbs! Use soft white sandwich bread (as fresh as possible!) and English cucumbers for best results. If using garden cucumbers, be sure to peel off the waxy skin first. Serve cucumber sandwiches with other finger foods and little desserts like tomato and feta bites, antipasto skewers, biscotti, and butter cookies.

Must-Try Cucumber Sandwich Recipe

labneh, (homemade

parsley

basil

Kosher salt

Extra virgin olive oil

½ English cucumber, (thinly sliced)

bread, (crust removed)

In a small mixing bowl, combine the labneh, chopped fresh herbs, and a dash of kosher salt. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Mix well.

Arrange the bread slices on a large cutting board and spread one side of each slice with a generous spoonful of labneh.

Arrange the cucumber slices on half of the bread slices, overlapping the cucumbers so they will fit well. Top with the other slice of bread (you should have 4 cucumber sandwiches at this point).

Pressing down gently, cut each cucumber sandwich into quarters (triangles or rectangles will work as well).

Arrange the sandwiches on a plate and serve with a garnish of dill. (If you have any cucumber slices left, you can arrange them on the plate as well). Enjoy!
