How to Make Finger Sandwiches

For a quick pick-me-up, or a festive Halloween appetizer, finger sandwiches have been the snack of choice in the World of Darkness for eons.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Begin by hunting for a suitable victim, or victims. Long, plump fingers are the ideal cuts for finger sandwiches.
Step2
Cast a dark and powerful spell upon your chosen subject(s) to distract them.
Step3
Take five of the most tantalizing fingers from your subject's hand, nails and all. Be very careful when removing fingers, as precious finger meat tends to fall off the bone if not handled properly.
Step4
Grill fingers over an open flame until they begin to sizzle and plump.
Step5
Place all five fingers in a row between two pieces of fresh bread, or in the center of a homemade Halloweenie Bun.
Step6
Dig in! Elvira enjoys her finger sandwiches with a touch of Dijon, but if your tastes are more pedestrian, you can use ketchup or butter.

Tips & Warnings

  • Do not forget to remove rings, which tend to get caught in the teeth.
  • Be sure fingers have stopped wiggling before you chomp into them. A wiggly finger can be disastrous to swallow!

on 2/23/2006 For the elderly, or those with less rigorous jaws and teeth (such as myself), I've found that when the finger meat begins to plum and sizzle, the delicate finger meat can be slid off the bone without tearing or falling apart. Doing this saves ones teeth from undo wear and tear. To remove meat without burning, use a pair of tongs. Grip bones at one end, and a to prevent tearing, grip a large portion of meat and gently pull.
