Method

Preparation of Base

  1. 1

    Slice the Cucumbers

    Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into 1/2 inch thick rounds. You should get about 20 slices from 2 medium cucumbers. Place the slices on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cream Cheese

    In a mixing bowl, place the cream cheese and soften it at room temperature for about 15 minutes. This will make it easier to spread.

Assembly of Canapés

  1. 3

    Spread Cream Cheese

    Take each cucumber slice and spread a generous amount of softened cream cheese on top using a butter knife or a small spatula.

  2. 4

    Add Toppings

    Chop the cherry tomatoes in half and place one half on top of each cream cheese spread. Sprinkle fresh dill evenly over the canapés, and add a few capers atop each one.

  3. 5

    Drizzle with Olive Oil

    Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the assembled canapés for added flavor.

  4. 6

    Season

    Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on each canapé to taste.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve Chilled

    Arrange the cucumber canapés on a serving platter and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy chilled as a refreshing appetizer!
