Our Pinterest users have excellent ideas about what to put between two slices of bread
Sandwiches are a common-thread food that unites so many different cuisines around the world: the ease of sandwiching meat, cheese, and greens between two slices of bread makes it a universal staple. At SAVEUR, we even dedicated an entire issue to the glory that is the sandwich.
You can make a sandwich out of pretty much anything, any time of the day: try a cheesy, egg-filed breakfast sandwich for a grab-and-go bite before work, pair a lunch sandwich with soup for a well-rounded midday meal, or prepare all-sandwich dinner party for a worthy feast that'll be a hit with your guests.
Naturally, our creative, kitchen-savvy Pinterest users can't get enough of our very best sandwich recipes. From a burrata-centric creation to classic grilled cheese, here are the 11 sandwiches our users are pinning right now.
Raegan Steinberg, co-owner of Arthur's Nosh Bar in Montreal's hip Saint-Henri neighborhood, calls her partner chef Alex Cohen an "everything and the kitchen sink kind of cook." Called the McArthur Sandwich, this high-piled schnitzel-filled creation adapted from the restaurant is the perfect example of his genius. Pounded and breaded chicken is topped with sweet honey, salty dill pickles, and vinegar-y iceberg slaw, then served upon crispy challah toast. The secret to the crunchy yet hearty schnitzel breading: instant mashed potato flakes mixed into the breadcrumbs. Get the recipe for The Ultimate Fried Chicken Sandwich »
