Cucumber And Goat Cheese Sandwich Food

CUCUMBER GOAT CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Mix together cheeses and chives. Taste and season with salt and pepper if you think it needs it.
• Spread 12 slices of bread with the cheese mixture. Layer the cucumber slices on top, layering them just a little bit on the sides. If you want a few sandwiches that aren't open-faced, top 6 of them with the remaining slices of bread.
• Using your favorite small cookie cutter, press down through the sandwiches until they are fully cut through.
• Arrange on a pretty plate - these are perfect with a cup of tea or a glass of white wine!

HERBED GOAT CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• To make the spread: Place the cream cheese, goat cheese, garlic, thyme, parsley, 5 tablespoons milk, salt, and pepper in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until well mixed. Add an additional tablespoon of milk if the spread is very thick.
• To make the sandwiches: spread each slice of the bread with the goat cheese spread. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and arrange on half of the bread slices. Top with the remaining bread and press slightly. Cut the sandwiches into halves, thirds, or triangles.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spread the bread on a baking sheet and bake, flipping the pieces once, until lightly toasted but not colored, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
• To serve, spread the cheese mixture on the toasts. Top with the sliced cucumber and radishes and garnish with dill sprigs.

CREAMY GOAT CHEESE AND CUCUMBER SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a mini-processor (or if multiplying the recipe, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade), blend together the goat cheese, cottage cheese and yogurt until smooth. Add the sumac and mix together.
• Spread half the cheese mixture on one slice of the bread. Sprinkle with dill. Top with a layer of thinly sliced celery. Top the celery with a layer of cucumber slices. Season if desired with salt and pepper and sprinkle on more dill. Spread the remaining cheese over the top slice of bread and sprinkle the walnuts over the cream so that they stick. Reverse the top slice onto the cucumber layer, press the sandwich gently (not too hard or the cream will ooze out), cut in half and serve.
