"This is a play on English cucumber finger sandwiches," says Manresa chef David Kinch, who roasts the cucumbers to deepen their flavor. "It also works fantastically on the grill." Use any cucumber, such as Japanese, Persian, or English hothouse. Serve it to four people instead of the prescribed eight, with a salad on the side, and we call it supper.
