EASY CUCUMBER PARTY SANDWICHES



Easy Cucumber Party Sandwiches image

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.

CUCUMBER SHRIMP TEA SANDWICHES



Cucumber Shrimp Tea Sandwiches image

I think tea sandwiches are just so cute and elegant. The recipe for these came from a wonderful fund raiser party for the theater where I volunteer and used to be the box office manager. They were so pretty, elegant, and delicious. The servings will actually depend on how many shrimp you have to work with. From what I observed, people will pick up two at a time and possibly return for more.

CUCUMBER SANDWICHES



Cucumber Sandwiches image

Provided by Julia Reed

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h15m

Yield 35 round tea sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cucumber, sliced into rounds
1 small white onion, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup cider vinegar
2 heaping tablespoons sugar
Thinly sliced white or wheat bread
Homemade mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Place cucumber, onion, vinegar and sugar in bowl and toss to mix. Add enough water to cover, along with a few cubes of ice. Soak cucumbers for at least an hour or overnight (they will keep refrigerated for several days).
  • Drain. With a 2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter, cut bread into rounds the size of cucumber slices (One piece of bread is enough for two rounds.) Spread one side of each round with mayonnaise and place a cucumber slice between two rounds, mayonnaise sides in.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your sandwiches.
  • Don't overcook the seafood: Cook it just until it is opaque and flaky. Overcooked seafood will be tough and dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add color, texture, and flavor to your sandwiches.
  • Experiment with different types of bread: You can use white bread, wheat bread, or even croissants.
  • Don't be afraid to get creative: You can add other ingredients to your sandwiches, such as cheese, avocados, or bacon.

Conclusion:

Seafood cucumber sandwiches are a delicious and refreshing meal that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a light and flavorful meal, give seafood cucumber sandwiches a try.
