Cucumber Sandwiches

Ingredients

• Cucumbers 20 oz
• Butter 0 oz
• Sourdough Bread 8 pieces
• Salt to taste

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin from the cucumbers and discard it. Then continue to slice the flesh into thin strips, stopping before reaching the core.

Step 2

Place the cucumber strips in a colander to drain excess liquid. Sprinkle a little salt on the cucumbers to draw out any additional moisture.

Step 3

While the cucumbers are draining in the colander, spread a thin layer of butter on one side of all the slices of bread. The butter should be applied in a very thin layer, but it must cover all the pores of the bread's crumb.

Step 4

On half of the slices of bread, lay out strips of cucumber in a single layer, slightly overlapping them to avoid any gaps.

Step 5

Cover the sandwiches with the remaining slices of bread, placing them butter-side down. Using a sharp knife, trim the crusts off the sandwiches, then cut them into triangles by slicing diagonally twice.
