Toasted sandwiches

Toasties, toasted sandwiches, toasted double deckers (aka triple deckers) and great vegetarian sandwich recipe ideas for all things nice, but not necessarily healthy; especially if you're on a diet e.g. the famous British Chip Butty and thus the less documented crisp sandwich all bring an occasional tasty treat.

3-2-1 being whether you use three, two or one pieces of bread to make things on toast, a sandwich or toasted sandwich and thus the double decker sandwich (sometimes mentioned as a triple decker) which can even be toasted.

This article provides just a few of of vegetarian recipe ideas for the quality slice of bread demonstrating the 3-2-1 principle to toast and sandwich making. Demonstrating that you simply simply simply simply needn’t have just cheese on toast or a toasted cheese sandwich but that by adding a third layer of bread you will have as an example an egg and cheese double decker sandwich; optionally toasted.

Double decker sandwiches are simply your chosen ingredients sandwiched between three slices of bread rather than just two pieces of bread, as shown within the examples below; and which in many cases can optionally be toasted.

On a more serious note, during this text I also take a look at the healthier aspects of bread, giving a fast overview of varied kinds of bread, its history, origin, nutritional health value and thus the high salt content of bread.

Double Toasted Bread

This recipe is for an egg and cheese toasted double decker sandwich although anything that you simply can placed on toast or during a toasted sandwich works equally well during a toasted double decker sandwich. The double decker sandwich is usually referred to as a 'triple decker' e.g. contingent whether you count the layers of ingredients (two) or the amount of toasted bread separating the ingredients (three)

Preparing a sandwich toast with eggs and cheese

Anything Goes on toast, almost , and although it's going to not always be healthy toasties are easy and quick to form , and will be very tasty; you'd possibly say 'Tasty Toasties'.

Making 'Things on Toast' is straightforward enough. If the topping ingredients are to be cooked separately and added to the toast afterwards like eggs (whether they be poached or fried) and or baked beans etc. then toasting the sliced bread within the toaster is that the only and quickest method. If however the topping is to be grilled straight on top of the toast then you'd make your toasty supported subsequent example recipe which is for cheese, onion and tomato on toast:-

• Under the grill toast the primary side of the sliced bread until golden brown.

• While the primary side is toasting prepare the ingredients e.g. grate the cheese, chop the onion and thinly slice the tomato.

• Turn the bread over and briefly grill (about 30 seconds) so as that the bread remains white but firms up slightly (slightly crispy).

• Butter the whiter side with margarine, top with the cheese and onion and place the slices of tomato on top.

• Continue grilling until the cheese has melted and will be a light-weight golden brown.

My favourite toasty is stilton cheese and tomato chutney. Prepare the toasted bread as above and when ready butter with margarine, add a generous layer of tomato chutney, top with the stilton and grill until just after the stilton starts to melt; don't over grill otherwise the stilton separates and half it finishes up dripping into the grill pan.

Potato crunchy sandwiches

The British Chip Butty is my favourite although the crisp sandwich (shown above) is quite tasty too.

To save any confusion the American word for chips is Fries and therefore the British crisp is what the Americans call chips!

Chip butties are simple enough to form , just:-

• Chip some potatoes and cook them during a deep fat fryer or chip pan until golden brown.
• Once the chips are cooked, place them between 2 slices of buttered bread.
• Add salt, vinegar and pasta sauce to taste.
• Press firmly together, slice the sandwich in to 2 halves then eat and luxuriate in.

The Crisp sandwich is even easier to make; just empty the contents of a packet of crisps between two slices of buttered bread, depress firmly and dig two halves or quarters.

Three Ways to Toast Bread

• In the toaster
• Under the grill, or
• In a sandwich maker

For quickness the toaster is that the apparent choice as unlike the grill it toasts all sides simultaneously.

In making 'Topped Toasties' or toasted sandwiches then you'll need to use grill; or if you merely want to form an easy toasted sandwich you'll with to use the toasted sandwich maker.

Making Your Own Bread

For Healthier Eating

We've had a baker for a few of years and it is a real asset, then easy to use; just put the ingredients within the top and press a couple of buttons (to choose your favourite bread recipe), then just await a couple of hours while the machine does its magic.

We often make a loaf most weekends and it is so nice that it's gone in no time; lately making your own bread couldn't be easier and with the worth of bread within the supermarkets lately making your own bread is no costlier than buying it from the shops.

By making your own bread you will be sure it's fresh, good, healthy and wholesome; especially if you opt to form wholemeal bread and do not add any salt to the recipe.

The healthy and nutritional value of bread

White vs. Wholemeal

Bread could also be a nutritional food source high in carbohydrate (starch) for energy and protein (gluten), it's also low in saturated fats and cholesterol but unfortunately lately high in salt and low in much needed fibre unless you buy or make wholemeal bread. Bread is additionally rich in vitamins, minerals, iron, zinc and calcium.

So beat all (apart from the salt issue) bread which has been a neighborhood of our staple diet since the dawning of mankind could also be a really nutritional food source; although wholemeal bread thanks to its higher fibre content is way healthier.

Salt could also be an enormous issue, bigger than many realise therein an excessive amount of salt can have many adverse health effects and thus the daily recommended dose of salt is simply 2 grams (a level teaspoon being about 15 grams).

 Although the number of salt in bread varies widely contingent the manufacturer and brand of bread the standard is about 0.5 grams of salt for each slice of bread meaning that with just four slices of bread you've reached the recommended daily level of salt. 

And to compound the problem almost every processed and packaged food item contains salt, as do most recipes. Eons ago before the innovation of refrigerators salt was essential in many food products as a preservative, lately it is not essential in most foods apart from for flavouring; and even then there are many good healthy alternatives for flavouring apart from salt, especially an honest range of herbs and spices to choose from.
