Cucumber Sandwiches

 

In milk with a drop of vinegar and salt and pepper, marinate clean, peeled and

thinly sliced cucumbers and fresh minced dill for at least two hours.

 

Using very thinly sliced white bread, remove the crusts and butter the bread

slightly on both top and bottom slices.

 

Drain cucumber and dill and place the mixture on the buttered bread. Cover with

remaining slice. Cut into finger sandwiches of 2†x 1†wide.
