Ingredients

24 slices thin white bread

4 ounces Ginger-Cilantro Lime Butter, recipe follows

8 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon

GINGER-CILANTRO LIME BUTTER:

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature

2 ounces (1/4 cup) cream cheese, at room temperature

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

1 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

  1. Spread all of the bread slices generously with the ginger butter. Place slices of smoked salmon in an even layer on half of the bread slices. Top with remaining bread slices. Using a 2-inch flower-shaped cookie cutter, cut out the tea sandwiches. Remove the top slice of bread from each flower. Using a 3/4 to 7/8-inch round biscuit cutter, cut a circle from the center of each, discard the circle. Replace the slice, butter-side down, on the flower.

GINGER-CILANTRO LIME BUTTER:

  1. Place butter, cream cheese, ginger, lime juice, cilantro and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse just until ingredients are combined, about 30 seconds.
  2. Transfer mixture to a sheet of parchment or waxed paper. Roll into a 1 1/2-inch wide log. Refrigerate until ready to use.

4 Stars: Great balance between the cilantro & fresh ginger (I added extra ginger to give it a little more "bite". I also couldn't find any thin sliced bread, so I used basic white, it worked out fine. Next time, I think I'll use more cream cheese & less butter, maybe a 50/50 blend, for a creamier spread. Very tasty alternative to dill!
