  • Step 2

    Stir together mayonnaise, wasabi, and remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Fold in mushrooms and chives.

  • Step 3

    Spread 3 tablespoons mushroom mixture each on four bread slices. Top with arugula, then sandwich with remaining bread slices. Using a sharp knife, cut off crusts, then cut sandwiches into triangles or fingers; serve.

Cook’s Notes

Look for a vegan mayonnaise with a short, recognizable ingredient list. Our test kitchen likes Sir Kensington’s fabanaise, which is made with the chickpea liquid known as aquafaba, for its bright flavor and silky texture.
