Toronto caterer Dinah Koo of Koo and Co. receives daily orders for trays of her updated classic tea sandwiches. The fun shapes, from hearts and pinwheels to checkerboards and ribbons, appeal to the young and the young-at-heart.

Ingredients

  • 12 oz frozen cooked baby shrimp, thawed
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp finely chopped fresh dill
  • 24 thin slices egg bread or white sandwich bread
  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • 24 Dill sprigs

Preparation

In sieve set over bowl, press shrimp firmly to remove any liquid.

In bowl, combine shrimp with mayonnaise and dill; set aside. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.)

Using 2-inch (5 cm) heart-shaped cutter, cut two hearts from each slice of bread. Set half of the hearts aside. Using 1-inch (2.5 cm) heart-shaped cutter, cut out heart shape from centre of remaining hearts. Reserve cutouts for another use.

Spread whole hearts and heart rings with butter. Top each whole heart with heart ring, butter side down. Fill centre with heaping tablespoonful (15 mL) of the shrimp mixture. Garnish with dill sprig.
