I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Empress Hotel in Victoria, BC where they have a lovely tea room. This is one of the recipes used over the years at their Afternoon Tea.
Ingredients:
2 slices white bread
3 englich cucumbers, peeled and sliced
2 teaspoons butter
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
salt and pepper
1/8 teaspoon horseradish (optional)
Directions:
1. Spread the butter and mayonnaise on both slices of bread.
2. Add thinly sliced cucumber to one slice of bread.
3. Add seasoning to cucumbers.
4. Top with the other slice of bread.
5. Cut off crusts and slice into squares or triangles. Sandwiches should be small for finger foods.
6. OPTIONAL: Add horseradish to the mayonnaise to give the sandwich a bit of a bite.
