Enjoy Every Sandwich
Sandwiches are my favorite food.
There is nothing a sandwich can’t cure. I have loved sandwiches every since I can remember.
In elementary school, I would always trade away all the components of my lunch with my friend Amy whose mom made a killer tuna fish sandwich with chopped hard boiled eggs mixed in. A masterpiece I made on my own was toasted bread for the traditional peanut butter and jelly. That toasting took the sandwich to an entirely new level. Crunchifying my sandwiches with a layer of chips has been a lifelong habit. I even wrote about my love of scrambled egg sandwiches and what they meant to my childhood.
As I got older, I discovered the joys of really complex sandwiches. When I travel, I seek out eateries that specialize in big, unusual sandwiches. I once ate at the legendary Zingerman’s Deli in Ann Arbor, Michigan where they have such crazy cool names for their sandwiches like Abra’s Nutty Yard Bird or the one I had, the TNT Cowboy Reuben. I collect cookbooks, and found some entirely devoted to sandwiches like Tom Colicchio’s ‘Wichcraft. Other cookbooks with truly good sandwich…
