Sandwich Basics
Sandwiches generally consist of a bread, a spread and a filling. In the most technical sense of the word. Bread serves primary as an edible container for the food inside, it can also provide the bulk and nutrients, regardless of the type, any bread used for a sandwich should ideally be used fresh. The spread serves three main purposes, it prevents the bread from soaking up the filling causing it to become soggy, it adds flavour as well as moisture to the sandwich.

Famous quotes containing the word sandwich:
“Then he rang the bell and ordered a ham sandwich. When the maid placed the plate on the table, he deliberately looked away but as soon as the door had shut, he grabbed the sandwich with both hands, immediately soiled his fingers and chin with the hanging margin of fat and, grunting greedily, began to much.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
