Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 loaf sandwich bread (baguette or ciabatta) preferably sliced into small rectangles
  • 8 oz container herbed cream cheese or Greek yogurt for a lighter spread
  • 4 oz slices salami or other deli meats like turkey or chicken
  • 1 cucumber cucumber thinly sliced
  • 4 oz slices sharp cheddar cheese or soft cheese like goat cheese
  • a few leaves fresh basil or other herbs like dill or chives

Equipment

  • Bread knife
  • Butter knife
  • Cutting board
  • Tray or platter
  • Cling film or cover

Method
 

  1. Slice the bread into small, neat rectangles about 1.5 inches wide, keeping the crusts on for texture. Use a serrated bread knife for clean cuts.
  2. Spread a thin layer of herbed cream cheese evenly over each bread piece using a butter knife, covering the surface completely without overloading.
  3. Layer 2-3 slices of salami or your preferred deli meat on top of the cream cheese, slightly overlapping for a colorful, full look.
  4. Add a slice of sharp cheddar or your choice of cheese on top of the meats, folding or rolling the meat for added visual interest.
  5. Place a thin slice of cucumber on top of each bite for crunch and freshness, pressing gently to set everything in place.
  6. Arrange all the assembled mini sandwiches on a tray or platter lined with parchment, repeating the process for all pieces.
  7. Cover the tray with cling film and chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes to let flavors meld and fillings set.
  8. Just before serving, garnish with small basil leaves or your preferred herbs for a fresh, vibrant finish.
  9. Cut the bites in half diagonally if desired for a more polished presentation, then serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to enjoy.
