A Very Green
Afternoon Tea
Sandwiches
As the Suited Chef, I thought a lot about
what we should do for our Culinary
Gentleman section considering it was all
about the Vegan & Vegetarian. I had thought
curries or different takes on traditional
dishes but then we realised that the
magazine issue coincided with National
Afternoon Tea Week, so the decision was
made. We have to make Vegan/Vegetarian
Afternoon Tea.
Traditional Afternoon Tea is made up of
Sandwiches, Scones & a variety of Cakes. So
we shall give you some ideas for all of those
sections and the recipes or where to go to
find them.
You can either purchase shop brought bread
or you can make your own Bread, it is really
simple and needs time a good recipe for that
is from food.com here.
The real thing is the fillings and this is where
we get creative.
Vegan
Cucumber & Mint – Thinly slice the
Cucumber & let it sit in a strainer for a good
quarter of an hour with a pinch of salt and
then pat dry with Kitchen Paper. Then place
in the sandwiches with a sprig or two of
mint.
