It’s very important that the cucumbers and capers are really dry. I even squeeze the capers a little. Otherwise, the cream will be too runny. With a hand blender: Roughly dice all the ingredients, otherwise it might not be able to do it. With a food processor: Simply throw everything in and blend until it’s pureed. Then chill and make sandwiches. Examples of using the cream: For the topping, you can use either cooked ham, cold chicken, tuna chunks, hard-boiled eggs, or… Spread a slice of sandwich bread or white bread with butter, place a lettuce leaf on top, a tablespoon of the cream, the topping (as shown), a little more cream, a lettuce leaf, and then another lightly buttered slice of white bread. Wrap tightly in cling film and refrigerate a little longer. They taste best when thoroughly chilled. Great for preparing as a school sandwich. Or you can fill the cream into hollowed-out tomatoes or onions, on crackers, as a dip, in egg halves…
