Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix together the butter, parsley, chives, shallot and lemon zest.
- Lay the bread slices out on a clean work surface. Spread 2 teaspoons of the compound butter over each slice of bread. Trim the cucumber slices so that they are the length of the bread slices. (Save the scraps for salads.) Lay 4 pieces of cucumber across 1 slice of buttered bread--it is okay if the cucumbers overlap. Repeat on 5 more slices of bread. Season the top of the cucumbers lightly with salt. Next, add a single layer of radishes over the cucumbers, about 12 rounds per slice of bread.
- Toss the frisee with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Divide the frisee evenly over the radishes. Top the frisee with the remaining 6 slices buttered bread. Cut each sandwich into thirds with a serrated knife to make small rectangles. Serve immediately.
CUCUMBER TEA SANDWICHES
My children wanted to plant a garden, and we ended up with buckets of cucumbers. When I tired of making pickles, I came up with these pretty, little sandwiches. We made 200 of them for a family gathering, and everyone wanted the recipe. -Kimberly Smith Brighton, Tennessee

QUICKIE CUCUMBER TEA SANDWICHES
One of my favorite tea sandwiches is Ms. Jenny Benedictine's cucumber spread. This is a little twist on that spread. It's got a bit more herbs in it that her original recipe. Great for an afternoon snack or a fancy tea-time tray. Passive time is chill time.

CUCUMBER TEA SANDWICHES
Cut sandwiches after they are assembled to avoid messy edges and have a cleaner look. I find that extra chopped dill is nice. A nice looking garnish is a half a grape flat side down on a slice of cucumber.
