Two small cucumber sandwiches on a small stone block.

I was talking to my mom about the menu for my party this weekend, and she suggested I make my grandmother’s cucumber sandwiches. She went on and on about how great they are. Unfortunately, I don’t remember Granny ever making these for me, so I had to take my mom’s word for it (and thankfully she’s a foodie). I was secretly hoping that these would be as good as the Devon Horse Show cucumber sandwiches, which I’ve never been able to truly replicate. They were the closest thing I’ve ever had to the Devon sandwiches, though I think the Devon sandwiches probably have cream cheese. I was skeptical about the recipe at first because it didn’t have dill, and I love dill with cucumbers. But these were so good, it was hard to me to save them for the party guests! I also served Deviled Eggs with Bacon Pepper Jam and Kentucky Hot Brown Stromboli at the party.

This recipe is technically a cucumber salad that she used as the filling for the sandwiches. So, if you want a gluten free or bread-free option, just eat it as a cucumber salad.
