Got some time to make an excellent sandwich yesterday. It's a holdover from the chickencheese era, my late contribution to the craft. I called it the Chickencheese Marinara. Cook a chicken breast in the oven, or in a pan. In another pan (or the same, but later) cook a few sliced tomatoes, some sliced up onions, a bit of diced garlic, salt, pepper, thyme and cracked red pepper flakes into a nice sauce. Once it's all liquid-like and saucy, cook as much moisture out as possible on low, and add in the chicken breast, sliced into small pieces. Add a handful of Mozzarella cheese, and let it simmer low until it's mostly emulsified solids and little bits of onion, garlic and chicken. Toast a bread roll, hollow out the inside a little bit, and you end up with this:



It's super delicious and I forgot to take more pictures.

Danish sandiches (Smørrebrød) are amazing. I had similar things in Sweden as well, but as far as sandwiches go I think the danes nailed it.
There are heaps of different variations but they are typically served open with dark rye and a generous spread of butter.
Ingredients can include gravlax (and many other types of pickled fish), remoulade, shrimp, cucumbers, roast beef, egg, roe, mayo, and heaps of other things.

Its worth mentioning that the bread and butter alone are delicious and I could easily just eat that with a coffee.





Maybe a bit exotic for some but they really are delicious.

Just had a pupusa at a Salvadoran restaurant. No pics because I'm deathly allergic to restaurant food photography, but if you can find a pupusería near you, I highly recommend them. I got mine with jalapeños, pork and cheese. Came with a side of fermented cabbage and carrots. It was kind of like how I'd imagine kimchi to taste like without the peppers.

Francesinha, y'all. Goddamn.



Italian bakery white bread, with Edam cheese, Krakus ham, thin pan-fried sirloin, smoked Portuguese Linguica, fresh cocktail sausages (I used bangers), more Edam, a sunny-side up egg, more Edam, broiled, then doused in a rich thick tomato-beer sauce and served with fries.

You crazy, Portugal. I had some weird sandwiches so far this month (fluffernutters and Fool's Gold Loaf were the other 2 on my List) but this one put a hurting on me.

Oh yeah, almost forgot, I put some duck bacon in there too because why not?

That looks tasty as heck. I'd maybe wrap it in some naan or other flat bread rather than standard sliced.

Allow me to present the Francesinha. It's a Porto speciality.



From wikipedia:
Francesinha (meaning Little Frenchie or simply Frenchie in Portuguese) is a Portuguese sandwich originally from Porto, made with bread, wet-cured ham, linguiça, fresh sausage like chipolata, steak or roast meat and covered with melted cheese and a hot thick tomato and beer sauce served with french fries.

The picture is of a Francesinha Especial with a fried egg on top. It is almost universally served with fino, a draft lager.

Daddy's has kind of a weird texture, almost gelatinous? Tastes fine, but I don't see what sets it apart from HP sauce. I kind of like HP fruity the best :gay:

You see the most shocking sights sometimes
I've fallen in love with a tuna melt recipe I found rifling through a family friend's cookbook a while ago. It's so simple, and if you're cooking for one, a can of tuna from Trader Joe's can easily make 3 sandwiches.


10 inches crusty French or Italian bread, split in half lengthwise (this is a lot of bread, so when I make these I'll instead buy a sour batard or something similar and just cut a thick slice normally)
3 1/2 ounces canned tuna
2 anchovy fillets, finely minced
2 tablespoons olive oil (I just use the oil from the anchovy tin)
1 teaspoon finely chopped celery
1 teaspoon capers, drained
1/2 teaspoon minced onion
1 teaspoon minced red bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated Swiss cheese (I use sharp cheddar sometimes)
1/2 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

For the topping:
6 strips of red bell pepper
2 anchovy fillets (optional)
2 tablespoons grated Swiss cheese (or whatever you used up above)


Now, it says to preheat the oven to 500F, brush the bread with olive oil, put it in for 5 minutes until lightly browned, then to take it out to put the mixture and toppings on and then put it back in for 5-10 minutes or until the cheese has fully melted. But that's a lot of time and a lot of heat, so I'll do it at 450F for 2:45 each, and it turns out fine. I'll also usually add more of the veggies, since my cutting skills aren't that great.

I was surprised to discover that Anthony Bourdain's recipe for Tuna Salad is the same one I came up with on my own years ago; since then I've cut back on the mayo a bit, adding dijon mustard and celery seed.

Coupla fish sandwiches for your pleasure, both from my local joint, which is also the best. Note the light, airy buns, toasted on the grill.



The swordfish sandwich. It's crucial not to have a dark, fishy taste here. Marinade goes a long way towards bringing out the best flavors of the swordfish.



The lobster roll. Some like the hot dog bun style but I prefer a shitton of lobster meat stacked high on a roll. Mayo works well but so does a good drenching in melted butter.

Here's a finnish sandwich, a bit different from your regular american sandwich. Way simpler, bread, butter, meat, and a glass of milk to go with. And while it seems to me that in america a bread is just something light and fluffy to hold the meat and other stuffing, the main part of this sandwich is the bread. 100% rye, dense, chewy, heavy, the meat and butter is just accents to the bread itself. My SO complains it hurts your jaw after a while of chewing. Doesn't look like much but it'll keep me going for hours.
