Roast Beef, Horseradish, and Cucumber Tea Sandwiches
Serves: 12
 
Ingredients
  • 1 large English cucumber, peeled
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 6 slices marbled rye bread
  • ½ pound thinly sliced deli London port roast beef
Instructions
  1. Using a sharp knife, cut cucumber into 3-inch-long pieces. Using a mandoline, slice cucumber pieces horizontally into long strips. Place cucumber slices in a single layer on paper towels until ready to use.
  2. In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, dill, horseradish, salt, and pepper. Spread mixture onto one side of each bread slice. Layer cucumber slices to a ⅛-inch thickness on spread side of 3 bread slices. Shingle roast beef slices on top of cucumber to a ¼-inch thickness. Cover with remaining bread slices, spread side down, to make 3 sandwiches.
  3. Using a serrated bread knife in a gentle sawing motion, trim and discard crusts from sandwiches. Cut each sandwich into 4 (3×1-inch) rectangles. Serve immediately, or cover with damp paper towels, place in an airtight container, and refrigerate until serving time.
