1 (8 oz.) cream cheese

Filling:
2 egg yolks
3 Tbsp. vinegar
3 Tbsp. sugar
pinch of salt

(chopped fine) and cream cheese. Beat until creamy. Let cool. Cut crust off bread and
spread with filling. Line up olives at edge and roll up and wrap in Saran Wrap and
freeze overnight. Slice while still frozen.

Tips: Use unsliced bread. If you can't get a Baker to slice if lengthwise for you
you can do it your self. Use unsliced bread, trim crusts except the bottom one.
Placing the crust on your left, cut the loaf lengthwise into 1/8 - 1/4 inch slices.
set the crust aside. (electric knife is a good tool for this or a good bread knife.)
Run rolling pin lightly over each bread slice, to compact it slightly and prevent
the slice from tearing when you roll it up. Spread each slice with soft butter,
then your choice of filling (not too thickly). Use 3 olives, 1 sprig of water cress,
an asparagus stock or gherkin pickle at the end of the roll. Start rolling at the
garnish end. If no garnish, roll from either end. It is important to roll as evenly
and as tightly as possible.
Wrap each roll securely in waxed paper, plastic wrap or aluminum foil. You can
wrap these either already cut into slices ( 1/4 - 1/2 inch slices about 5 sandwiches)
or uncut to be sliced later, depending on when they will be served. Refrigerate
for 3-4 hrs. or freeze ahead if the filling will allow that.
