Curried Chicken Tea Sandwiches

Cultural Context

Curried chicken tea sandwiches have their roots in American tea culture, where light, delicate sandwiches are served at afternoon tea or social gatherings. The use of curry powder reflects the influence of Indian cuisine on American palates, especially in the mid-20th century. These sandwiches are often enjoyed at parties and picnics, offering a flavorful twist on traditional chicken salad sandwiches. Today, they are popular for brunches and casual get-togethers, showcasing the versatility of curry in American cooking.

Add the diced chicken to the whipped heavy cream in the bowl and mix together with a spatula.

Add 2 tablespoons of light mayonnaise to the chicken mixture, adding more if needed.

5

Stir in 1 teaspoon of yellow curry powder, along with salt and pepper to taste, and mix until well combined.

Use frozen wheat bread, taking two slices together and cutting off the crusts for neat sandwiches.

7

Spread some of the curry chicken mixture onto one slice of the bread and cover with another slice.

Cut the sandwiches in half, then cut each half in half again to create smaller squares.
