Tea Sandwiches

To make these dainty sandwiches, purchase very thinly sliced bread and freeze an hour or two before handling. Keep fillings at room temperature for easier spreading. Spread the filling all the way to the edges them trim and discard all the crusts. Use a serrated blade for neat trimming and cutting. If making sandwiches in advance, lightly spread with butter to keep the bread from becoming soggy. Cut the bread with cookie cutters for different shapes. Cover with a damp cloth until ready to serve.

Smoked Salmon Sandwich

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon minced green onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill weed
1 tablespoon capers, drained
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
Pepper to taste
2 teaspoons butter, room temperature
8 slices pumpernickel bread
4 pieces smoked salmon
12 cucumber slices, thinly sliced

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, green onion, dill weed, capers, horseradish, and pepper; set aside.

Spread butter thinly over pumpernickel bread slices; spread mayonnaise mixture on each bread slice. Divide salmon and cucumber slices evenly over 4 slices of bread; top with remaining bread slices. Cut each sandwich in half diagonally. Transfer to individual serving plate and serve.
