that sandwich is a work of Art !

 

clearly you own , not D/L'd from the Net.

 

it looks Sooo good , its easy for me to pretend  the EP is , a tempura batterd egg  not being an EP fan

 

in terms of slicing :

 

a zillion years ago , from the Library of course , ATK had a publication that had a reader ' tips ' section .

 

cutting a ' fully stuffed ' sandwich has its challenges .  the reader ' tip ' was to cut the top slice of bread separately 

 

then cut the sandwich , then add the cut top at the end.

 

brilliant I thought that tip was .

 

its a fun challenge eating a sandwich like the one you made yourself,  above , for sure.

Thanks, @rotuts!
Today, I just used some long toothpicks to stabilize everything but I’ve used that sandwich slicing trick several times. Very helpful! 
I also picked excess bread out of the middle of the roll which helps make space for the fillings.

Yesterday, I neglected to share this roasted asparagus with feta, almonds and mint from Sami Tamimi's new book, Boustany

I'll call out those little greenish red, pear-shaped tomatoes, kinda like mini-Kumatos They looked so dull compared to the brilliant red, orange and yellow varieties at the farmers market that I felt sorry for them and bought a basket. They turned out to be sweet, tangy and very flavorful. 
 

Today, I’m having leftovers from yesterday’s lunch. I went out with a group of friends to a local waffle place called Honey & Herb (full menu here.) I ordered something called “Salmon I used to know” which their menu describes as “A trio of savory brioche waffles topped with smoked salmon, herb caper cream cheese, and peppery arugula. Finished with roasted lemon slices and pickled onions for a burst of flavor,” with a salad as my side.


I brought home 2 of the trio.

I disassembled them, stored the components separately in the fridge then toasted the waffle to crisp it up and reassembled.
