Steps:
- Cut the tops of the cucumber off and peel its skin (optional). Now cut off a chunk that is as long as the width of your bread. Slice it. Repeat again with another chunk of cucumber.
- Place them onto sheets of paper kitchen towel and sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
- Meanwhile: Prepare the spread by combining cream cheese, mayonnaise, dillweed, soy sauce, mustard and black pepper (see note 1).
- With paper kitchen towels remove the moisture that the salt drew out of the cucumber by patting them dry.
- Spread 3 bread slices with cream cheese mixture. Arrange cucumber slices on top of one of the slices, cover with another slice (the spread-side down). Spread the top of this slice with some more cream cheese. Cover with cucumber slices and top with bread, spread-side down.
- Cut this into 9 pieces (see note 4), insert toothpicks and repeat with the other 3 slices.
- Enjoy!

EASY CUCUMBER PARTY SANDWICHES
These easy, beautiful, yummy sandwiches are perfect for brunches, tea parties or spring and summer lunches. Can be prepared ahead of time and assembled just before serving. This is an easy appetizer to prepare the day before, except for the assembly. The cream cheese mixture is actually better after about 8 hours. Feel free to experiment with the dressing; we prefer the buttermilk dressing but ranch or Italian works great, too. Also, cocktail bread can be substituted for the hand-cut bread, which will save 10 to 15 minutes.

SESAME CUCUMBER AND AVOCADO SALAD
Crispy cucumber and creamy avocado perform a delicate dance with earthy notes of sesame in this most simple of salads. Thin-skinned varieties such as Persian or English cucumbers work best, as they are almost seedless with a robust flesh that stays crisp. But don't worry if you only have access to seedy cucumbers: Peel them if their skins are thick, then cut them in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds before slicing. No-cook and ready in a matter of minutes, this elegant salad can be dressed up according to your mood. It is a satisfying meal on its own, but it can also be served alongside cold soba noodles, or with brown rice and a fried or jammy egg on top.

Steps:
- Make the dressing: Place the sesame oil, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, sugar, soy sauce and red-pepper flakes into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water and whisk until emulsified. Taste, and adjust seasonings. (Dressing should taste acidic, a little sweet and salty.)
- When you're ready to eat, prepare the salad: Halve the avocados and discard the pits. Using a small paring knife, carefully score the avocado flesh into 1/2-inch cubes, avoiding cutting through the skin. Use a large spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh (in one spoonful, if possible), as close to the skin as possible. Transfer avocado cubes to a large bowl and add the dressing; toss gently.
- Add the cucumbers and scallions and toss everything together. Season with salt and black pepper, top with more sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm cucumbers for the best results.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the cucumbers evenly.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a vegetable peeler to create thin cucumber slices.
- Use a variety of fillings to create different flavor combinations.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices to add extra flavor to your sandwiches.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately or chill them for later.
Conclusion:
Cucumber sandwiches are a refreshing and delicious appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to suit your own taste preferences. With a little creativity, you can create cucumber sandwiches that are both beautiful and delicious. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give cucumber sandwiches a try.
