The Best Cucumber Sandwiches

Submitted by Codychop

"The best flavors always seem so simple! Give these a try (I won't eat cucumbers any other way). A nice southern treat! Since the recipe is so easy good ingredients are key. Real or homemade mayo and good salt, seedless cukes."

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 loaf squishy white bread
• 1 English cucumber
• 1⁄4 cup very thinly sliced sweet onion
• 1⁄4 cup Best Foods Mayonnaise or 1/4 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise
• kosher salt (good quality salt is a MUST)

directions

1. Slice the cucumber as thin as you can (1/8" is good).
2. Cut out nice circles from the white part of the bread using a 3in cookie cutter(toss the crusts).
3. Spread a seriously THIN layer of mayo on each slice and artfully arrange 3-4 cucumber slices on each open faced sandwich.
4. Top with 3 or 4 shavings of onion.
5. Sprinkle each sandwich with some salt (do not leave this out!).
6. Enjoy!

So good! And good ingredients make this kinda stellar. I used English cukes and Grandma's tiny cookie cutter, getting 3 round finger sandwiches from each 2 slices of bread. Very pretty and simple. Thanks,<br/>Jan.

Love this. I change the mayonnaise to fat free.I'm a diabetic so watch everything. But great recipe.

I gave this 5 stars. My family loves cucumber sandwiches. We make ours slightly different. We do not use onions or cut out the bread. We spread 2 slices of white bread with mayonnaise. Then lay slices of cucumbers onto one slice of bread. Next we sprinkle with salt & pepper and top the with the other slice of bread. Thanks for posting a great recipe! Christine (internetnut)
