Cucumber Sandwiches

with Goat Cheese, Watercress, and Radish

•Soy-free •Nut-free

cucumber sandwiches are a classic for a ladies’ lunch or tea. My version

is bread-free, but just as tasty!

1 log (4 ounces, or 112 g) goat

cheese

1 large cucumber, peeled and sliced

into ¼-inch (6 mm) slices (you will

need 24 slices)

Salt and pepper to taste

½ cup (25 g) watercress, roughly

chopped

3 red radishes, thinly sliced

Cut the goat cheese into 12 even slices. Place 1 slice of goat cheese onto

12 cucumber slices. Sprinkle each one with salt and pepper. Top each with

a bit of watercress and a few slices of radish. Top each with the remaining

12 cucumber slices. Place on a platter and serve.

Yield: 12 sandwiches

Chef’s Tip

Goat cheese is very soft, so to slice the goat cheese log into 12 pieces,

make sure it is very cold and use a 10-inch (25 cm) piece of unflavored

dental floss pulled taut between your fingers to slice the cheese.
