Herbed Cucumber Radish Tea Sandwiches Recipe

Name: Herbed Cucumber Radish Tea Sandwiches Recipe
Prep time: 10 min
Total time: 10 min
Yield: 12 tea sandwiches
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups labne (See note); 1 1/2 cups finely chopped dill; 2/3 cup finely minced chives; 1 tablespoon lemon juice; 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce; Salt and pepper; 12 thin slices white sandwich bread, crust removed (See note); 6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened; 6 small radishes, scrubbed and sliced 1/8-inch thick; 1 medium English cucumber (see note), sliced 1/8-inch thick; 3/4 cup pea shoots

Note: Start this recipe with a whole, unsliced sandwich bread loaf, such as Pullman, and slice the bread about 3/16 inch thick for delicate tea sandwiches. Labne is a yogurt cheese, available at many specialty markets. If you can't find labne, place 4 cups Greek yogurt in a cheesecloth-lined strainer over a bowl and allow to drain, refrigerated, for 12 hours. Do use the English cucumber in this recipe as it has fewer seeds and is less watery.
