Sandwiches

Had a sandwich? Post it here. Pics are nice but not necessary, just tell us what you had in it, how you rated it and if you’d change anything.
All sandwich versions welcome. Open, toasted, plain ol’ baguettes, wraps, your finest sourdough etc.
No burgers though if you don’t mind. Burgers are to my mind a different voluminous category!

Seafood and lemon n thyme salted cucumber.
Went down a storm. I particularly liked the cucumber shredded this way and the flavoured salt worked very nicely with the cucumber.

That, for me, is not a sandwich. It's a wrap, similar to the Doner kebabs, wrapped in pita bread, I used to eat up Tottenham Court Rd after a night on the beers. :laugh: :laugh:

I figured I’d just quote my hamburger sandwich story from when I’d posted it before:

My "hamburger sandwich" story: we were on a long drive, and the wife was nodding off (as usual) when I pointed out we'd need to stop for lunch at some point: "What do you feel like?"

"I don't care...just some kind of sandwich. A sandwich sounds good."

An hour or so later, we reached an exit with a few restaurants, and I pulled into a burger joint, then woke her up.

"Burgers?! I said I wanted a sandwich!"

"Um...a burger is a sandwich."

"No it's not! It's a...a...burger! It's its own thing! It's not a sandwich!"

"Two pieces of bread...a filling...I think that's what's called a sandwich."

"No! It's! Not!"

So we went inside and stepped up to the counter to order, and I kid you not, the girl taking the order said...<drumroll>...

"Hi! Thanks for choosing BurgerTown! What kind of hamburger sandwich can I get you today?"

A regional favorite I’ve posted before, but here’s a fresh one:


Mayonnaise the bread - yes, I used “mayonnaise” as a verb - making sure you have waves of it, not just a light smear, and pepper it as well.

Top with scrambled egg that’s also been liberally peppered (both before and after cooking):

Behold:

Every bite should have the egg, pepper, and mayonnaise singing perfect three-part harmony in your mouth:

Don’t add fresh herbs, don’t add cheese, don’t cut the sandwich into halves. It’s also preferred to use cheap supermarket white bread, but I don’t have any of that.

My DH likes cheese melted and scrambled into the eggs on toasted bread. I like mine plain with S&P on soft white untoasted Walmart bread.

Oh and of course the mayonnaise!

I had to Google salad cream.
And was surprised to see they sell it here and it's made by Heinz.
Sounds like a nice condiment to have handy.

Sounds a bit like Miracle Whip??

Its not really like miracle whip. Its quite an acquired taste and most American palates find it very acidic. Plenty of UK palates dislike it too. Its vinegary but looks creamy! I like it a lot but then I'm not a fan of mayonnaise. Its good mixed with other things such as tomato ketchup, chilli sauce, yoghurt etc.
