BEST BENEDICTINE SPREAD
This Louisville staple is an easy and refreshing cucumber spread or dip and can be served with almost anything you could imagine. Dipping club crackers or pita and French bread toast points are favorites, but carrot sticks and pretzels are great too. We use it for cucumber sandwiches, spread it onto our BLTs, and use it as a sauce on poached salmon. You can serve it immediately or refrigerate it to firm up and let the flavors meld.

Steps:
- Process cucumber chunks in a food processor until finely chopped. Put chopped cucumber and white onion in a piece of cheesecloth and twist to squeeze into a bowl as much liquid as possible from the vegetables, reserving the liquid.
- Assure the food processor bowl is dry before returning cucumber and onion mixture to the food processor. Add cream cheese, dill, hot pepper sauce, green food coloring, and cayenne pepper. Process the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides of the food processor bowl a few times to make sure everything is integrated. If too thick, add reserved liquid a teaspoon at a time.

BENEDICTINE TEA SANDWICHES
Cool, light, refreshing taste treat for hot summer days. The combination of cucumber, cream cheese and dill is to die for! Adjust amount of onion to personal taste. I tasted this when the wife of an associate made them years ago. I muddled around until I came up with this recipe which is as close as I could get to the original. The recipe originated in Kentucky, I believe.

Steps:
- Place grated cucumber in colander and sprinkle with salt. Toss to coat and let stand for 20 minutes. Drain and press out as much moisture as possible. Pat with paper towels to remove any remaining moisture.
- With paddle attachment on stand mixer, beat mayo, cream cheese, onion*, dill & garlic until creamy.
- Add drained cucumber and mix well. Salt to taste if needed.
- Spread mixture on white sandwich bread. Slice off crusts. Cut sandwiches into driangles or diamonds or seal with a sandwich press** if desired (see note below).
- *Walla Walla, Vidalia, or Mayan onions work best - must be sweet onions so they don't overpower the delicate balance of the other ingredients.
- **If using a sandwich press, cut bread first, place filling in, then press to seal (this keeps the edges clean so they will seal better).
- If not serving immediately, refrigerate, covered.

BENEDICTINE SPREAD OR DIP
Benedictine is a very unique green cucumber flavored spread that was born in my native state, Kentucky. Benedictine and bacon tea sandwiches are traditional Derby Day fare. It is wonderfully cool and delicious, and is a great spread for appetizers and sandwiches. I especially love it with pumpernickel bread. It looks very pretty...
