Sandwich tips thread

[olliejen]

like what someone else already said, but for a sweet tang, i like to use thousand island dressing in my sandwich.

i've always wanted to try the "moist maker" idea from Friends, of a slice of bread soaked in gravy in the middle of a turkey sandwich.

as a personal preference, I don't like to have cheese completely melted into liquidy goo on a sandwich; if i'm putting it into a hot sandwich, i'll typically let the hot item cool just a little bit so that the cheese retains a little more of its shape and consistency than it might otherwise have.

also, on a steak sandwich made of like a flat iron steak or flank steak, i love grilled onions or grilled scallions.

the viet subs around here have your stock radish & carrot in them, but they also add cilantro (not sure if that's SOP or not) and it really makes the sandwich for me.
