Ingredients
- 1 large Cucumber
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 1 tbsp Fresh dill
- 1 tbsp Chives
- 1 tsp Lemon juice
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Pepper
- 8 slices White sandwich bread
- 2 tbsp Butter
Directions
Step 1
Peel the cucumber and slice it very thinly using a sharp knife or mandoline. Place the slices on a paper towel, sprinkle lightly with salt, and let them sit for about 10 minutes to release excess moisture. Pat them dry with another paper towel.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, fresh dill, chives, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Step 3
Spread a thin layer of butter onto one side of each slice of bread to prevent it from getting soggy.
Step 4
On the unbuttered side of four bread slices, spread an even layer of the herb cream cheese mixture.
Step 5
Arrange the cucumber slices evenly over the cream cheese layer, slightly overlapping them.
Step 6
Place the remaining slices of bread on top, buttered side facing inward, to form sandwiches.
Step 7
Using a serrated knife, carefully trim the crusts off each sandwich to create clean edges, then cut each sandwich into quarters (triangles or squares).
Step 8
Serve immediately, or cover with a slightly damp paper towel and plastic wrap to keep them fresh until ready to serve.
