Top each slice of brioche with a thin strip of smoked salmon, followed by a row of cucumbers and then a row of radishes; repeat in an ABC, ABC pattern.
Step 3
Slice the tea sandwiches in half diagonally across the length of the bread. Garnish with lemon zest and chives.
Step 4

Step 5
On each slice of brioche, arrange a row of ham, followed by a row of apples and another of asparagus; repeat in an ABC, ABC pattern. Halve the tea sandwiches horizontally across the length of the bread. Grind black pepper over the top.
