Time 25m

Yield 18 tea sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick (4 ounces) salted Irish butter, such as Kerrygold, at room temperature
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 tablespoon finely minced shallot
1 teaspoon lemon zest plus juice of 1/2 lemon
12 slices brioche bread (1/2-inch slices), crusts removed
24 thin lengthwise slices Persian cucumber (1/4-inch slices)
Kosher salt
3 to 4 small red radishes, thinly sliced into rounds
1 cup frisee, broken into small pieces

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the butter, parsley, chives, shallot and lemon zest.
  • Lay the bread slices out on a clean work surface. Spread 2 teaspoons of the compound butter over each slice of bread. Trim the cucumber slices so that they are the length of the bread slices. (Save the scraps for salads.) Lay 4 pieces of cucumber across 1 slice of buttered bread--it is okay if the cucumbers overlap. Repeat on 5 more slices of bread. 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.

I'm allergic to cucumbers, so I can't try this recipe.
