The easiest and best tasting cucumber sandwich you can make!

Ingredients

  • 4 slices white bread (or any other choice) thin sliced
  • 2 oz cream cheese room temperature (or good quality butter, less)
  • ½ cucumber organic, English, thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Peel the cucumber, and slice it thinly. I used a simple OXO slicer for quick, even slices.
  • Spread soft/room temperature cream cheese or butter 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. 

Notes

  • Take them out of the fridge about half an hour before you serve them as you don't want them to be too cold.
  • Don't keep them uncovered too long or they will become too dry.
  • Butter is a fine substitution for the cream cheese, in fact it is more original.
