About Tea sandwich

Tea sandwiches are small, delicate sandwiches traditionally served during afternoon tea, originating in British cuisine. Typically made with thinly sliced bread, they are filled with a variety of ingredients such as cucumber, smoked salmon, egg salad, chicken, or cream cheese, often complemented by fresh herbs and light spreads. The crusts are usually removed, and the sandwiches are cut into bite-sized shapes like triangles or rectangles for an elegant presentation. Tea sandwiches are often healthier than regular sandwiches, as they tend to feature fresh, minimally processed ingredients and smaller portions. However, their healthiness may vary depending on the fillings chosen—cream-based spreads or fatty meats may be less nutritious than vegetable-centered options. They are a versatile snack or light meal, offering a balance between flavor and portion control, making them suitable for social gatherings or casual tea breaks.
