Cutting the crusts off sandwiches represented the height of opulence once upon a time. As such, no “high tea” would be respectable without crustless cucumber or egg white bread sandwiches cut corner to corner.
The recipe below indulges in that philosophy but also layers in other delicate textures and flavours to enhance the nuances of our Aoraki Wholegrain Mustard & Mānuka Honey Hot Smoked Portion.
Create your own high tea and lift your tea cup and little finger to decadence.
Make a cup of Darjeeling tea and enjoy!
