TURKEY TEA SANDWICHES image

Categories     turkey

Yield 8-10

Number Of Ingredients 9

Scallion cream cheese:
3/4 pound (12 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup minced scallions (white and green parts)
Pinch kosher salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
Sandwiches:
1 loaf dense raisin-nut bread, unsliced
8 thin slices fresh or smoked turkey breast
Fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • For the scallion cream cheese, combine the cream cheese, scallions and the salt and pepper in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Do not whip. For the sandwiches, have the store slice the bread lengthwise on a meat slicer into 1/4-inch-thick slices. (If that isn't possible, you can slice it crosswise with a very sharp knife.) Lay out 8 slices of bread and spread them all with a thin layer of scallion cream cheese. Place a single layer of turkey on half the slices, cutting the edges to fit the bread. Place the basil leaves randomly on top of the turkey. Top with the other 4 slices of bread, cream cheese side down. Lay the sandwiches on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, cover with damp paper towels and wrap the sheet with plastic. Refrigerate until the cream cheese is cold and firm. Place the sandwiches on a cutting board and, with a very sharp knife, cut off the crusts. Cut each large sandwich in half crosswise, and then cut each half diagonally, twice, to make a total of 8 small triangles. (If the bread was cut crosswise, follow the assembly directions, then cut off the crusts and cut diagonally, twice, to make 4 small triangles.) Serve chilled.

These sandwiches are so versatile. You can serve them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're also great for picnics and road trips.

These sandwiches are a great way to use up leftover turkey. I always make a big batch of turkey soup after Thanksgiving and then use the leftovers to make these sandwiches.

I love that these sandwiches can be made with different types of bread and fillings. I've tried them with white bread, wheat bread, and even croissants.

These sandwiches are perfect for a party or potluck. They are easy to make ahead of time and they always disappear quickly.

Overall, I thought these sandwiches were just okay. They were easy to make, but the flavor was nothing special.

These sandwiches were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

I found the cranberry mayo to be a bit too sweet. I think I would use a different spread next time.

These sandwiches were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add some more mayonnaise next time.

I'm not usually a fan of turkey sandwiches, but these were surprisingly good. The cranberry mayo added a nice tangy flavor.
