How to Keep a Cucumber Sandwich from Getting Soggy?

1. Use English cucumbers, which have less water content than other cucumbers.

2. Sprinkle the sliced cucumbers with salt and place them on paper towels to allow any additional moisture to drain before adding them to the sandwiches.

3. Spread butter on both pieces of bread to create a barrier between the cucumbers and the bread.

Finger sandwiches served on a tiered stand are delicious. We used to go to an old schoolhouse tearoom which served lunch like this and it was so delicious. I'm visiting from Creative Crafts.
