Watercress Sandwiches

These are big in England but not so popular here. My grandma used to make watercress sandwiches, and they always remind me of early spring. It’s a nice teaser for the good things to come. I keep it simple and just butter the bread, spread some creme cheese and then put the watercress leaves in the middle.  Watercress itself is very similar to baby arugula.  It has the texture of baby spinach, but is bitter.  I also like it very much in soups.  I like it as a garnish on top of any noodle soup like udon.

    So what goes into the watercress sandwich? Is that just watercress and mayo?
