Radish and Lemon Butter Open Face Sandwiches

Ingredients

  1. 2 oz Vermont Butter and Cheese Company Cultured Butter, softened (of course you can use any butter you wish)
  2. 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  3. 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  4. 7 slices of Orwasher’s White Bread
  5. 6 ounces red and watermellon radishes, thinly sliced
To make the lemon butter

MIX the softened butter with the lemon zest, juice, and salt to taste 

To assemble the sandwiches

SPREAD the bread slices with the lemon butter.
CUT bread into desired shapes, you can do long rectangles, triangles, custom shapes, but I like circles for this.
SERVE immediately is the best option because the radish slices will dry out. If you can’t, you can prevent dryness by soaking the slices in lemon water before assembly and/or cover assembled sandwiches with plastic wrap for no more than 2 hrs.
