Spring Tea Sandwiches Recipe
Ingredients
- sliced white bread or potato bread
- fresh strawberries - about 2 berries per sandwich
- banana slices - about 1/4 banana per sandwich
- 2 tbsp apricot jam per sandwich
- watercress - 1 small handful per sandwich
- thinly sliced cucumber - about 1/8 cucumber per sandwich
- 2 tbsp black bean hummus per sandwich
- sliced green apple - about 1/4 apple per sandwich
- sliced fennel root - about 1/4 cup per sandwich
- fennel tops - a few pinches per sandwich
- 2 tbsp fresh natural peanut butter
- a few pinches kosher flake salt per sandwich
Instructions
- To construct all of the sandwiches, spread the peanut butter, jam, or hummus on the bottom slice of bread, and then stack the fruits and vegetables, after being well rinsed and dried, on top of the spread.
- Add the top slice of bread, and press gently to bind the sandwich together. Use a very sharp knife to cut all of the crusts off of the sandwiches, (yes, bits of your ingredients will get discarded in this process), and then cut each sandwich in half.
Notes
For best results serve the sandwiches right away. If they need to be stored, cover them tightly with plastic wrap and store them in the fridge for a few hours. Overnight storage is not recommended.
