A Basic Cucumber Sandwich

When I was in high school, there was a bakery near the school that sold cucumber *only* sandwiches. They were cheap, so I bought them with my allowance. They were perfectly seasoned with salt, and delicious, and have remained in my memories.
I thought back to those sandwiches, used my favorite yogurt sauce, and made my own variation.
To prevent the sandwiches from becoming watery, be sure to squeeze out the salt-massaged cucumbers very well to remove excess moisture. Recipe by Maki Kaoru
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Slice the cucumbers into about 1mm thick (you can use a vegetable slicer or mandoline). Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt (not listed in the ingredient list), mix it up with your hands, and let sit for about 5 minutes.
- 2
Combine the ※ ingredients to make the sauce.
- 3
When the cucumbers are ready, drain and squeeze them out tightly.
- 4
Mix the cucumbers with the sauce.
- 5
Spread the cucumbers on two slices of bread and top them with the remaining slices. Cut off the crusts. Cut each sandwich in half and they're ready.
- 6
Put on a plate with some baby salad leaves and tomato (if you have them) for a nice presentation!
