Cucumber Sandwiches Recipe

These are very nice to serve with a fish course in place of bread or

rolls and a salad. Slice the cucumbers very thin and soak them in ice

water for one or two hours. They must be crisp and brittle and made just

at serving time. Beat together three tablespoonfuls of olive oil, one

tablespoonful of vinegar, a saltspoonful of salt and a dash of pepper;

stand this dressing on the ice until it thickens. Butter thin slices of

bread, cover them with a layer of cucumbers that have been drained and

dried on a napkin, sprinkle over the dressing, put on another layer of

buttered bread. Press together, trim the crusts and cut into triangles.

Heap these at once on a napkin and send to the table.
