CUCUMBER SANDWICH RECIPE

Steps:

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

Season the top of the cucumbers lightly with salt. Next, add a single layer of radishes over the cucumbers, about 12 rounds per slice of bread.
• Toss the frisee with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Divide the frisee evenly over the radishes. Top the frisee with the remaining 6 slices buttered bread. Cut each sandwich into thirds with a serrated knife to make small rectangles. Serve immediately.
