Enjoy Every Sandwich

Posted:
in General Discussion edited January 2014
I just made myself a very nice Sandwich, it was fairly simple, but it was tasty.



Sautéed onions

MorningStar tomato/basil burger

Pepper jack cheese(melted on top of the burger)

Honey Mustard

Tomato

Lettuce

Served between two halves of a Honey wheat Bagel



I'm not a vegetarian, but I like veggie burgers, and I often use them in place of meats on my sandwiches.



it was very satisfying, and I enjoyed making and eating it. I would have probably added some avocado, but they weren't ripe.



So, let's talk about sandwiches, current favorites? great recipes? simple and tasty? all time favorites? what sandwich you had for lunch?

    I used to make a sandwich on Sundays. It used to cost me £4 and it was worth every penny.



    The bread was burnt, sour, traditional-style baguette from the French bakery on the corner. I'd cut in two and toast the outside while I got the filling ready:



    a few paper-thin slices of this stupidly hot Italian dry sausage and a few slices of Emmenthal from the stupidly expensive Italian delicatessen next to the French bakery

    olive oil

    salt



    oh god why did i move away from these shops



    I loved that sandwich. I'm salivating now.

    Two ends of the spectrum:



    An open faced toasted cheese sandwich (bread pre-toasted, cheese melted under a broiler), made with a good sharp cheddar and a good whole wheat bread. There is something about hot molten sharp cheddar that is like heroin to me.



    Or, freshly baked honey-oregano wheat bread (lots of bakeries hereabouts), sliced thick, with local, organic tomatoes (which actually have flavor), avocado, a particular salty dry gouda I get from "The Cheese Board" (a local collective that lets you sample cheeses endlessly), a sweet/hot mustard from Sonoma county, and maybe some sweet onion if I can get it.



    Hooray for Bay Area food!

    I've really been enjoying Ice Cream sandwiches lately.



    Another all time favorite of mine is the Peanut Butter, Nutella, Banana Sandwich. I still dig PBnJ, but if I can help it, I do the PBnNB style

    From the 2nd Ave. Deli smothered in hot mustard, a few full sour pickles, and a Dr. Brown's Cream Soda. Perhaps some kasha varnishkes on the side.



    Like heaven on earth.

    Whenever I'm in Pittsburgh, I can't pass up a ham, egg and bacon sandwich from Primanti Brother's. I'm sure it decreases my life span by a few years but it's heaven. In Miami, a good cuban or media noche always satisfies.

    I love good bread. I'd probably just eat the baguette in Hassan's sandwich and be happy.

    Yeah, Bread is often overlooked, but for me, it's just as important as the contents in the sandwich.

    One of my goals if I go on leave will be to learn to make authentic French bread. I have recently acquired baking stones. I also have black-steel bakers shaped for French bread.



    I will do whatever I need to do, and buy whatever I need to buy to achieve this goal.



    Slurp.

    I like corn tortillas .. as the closest to sandwiches that i eat. Stuffed with rice and home cooked beans, some vegetables and hot sauces.

    Call me crazy but there's nothing as good as a Bahn Mi sandwich





    and a bowl of Pho Bo (or Ga)





    I spent a lot of time in SE Asia as well as Honolulu China Town. These are hard to find in my current home town.
