Cucumber Sandwich Recipe FAQs

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes! You can prep them in advance. Just store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They hold up well when prepared ahead, but are best enjoyed the same day for optimal texture, as the cucumber slices will become watery over time.

How should I store leftovers?

Keep leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container. Try to eat them within one day for the best taste and crunch. The cucumbers may release some moisture as they sit, so pat them dry if needed before serving.

How do I keep them from getting watery?

Pat the cucumber slices dry with paper towels before assembling the sandwiches to remove extra moisture.
