SANDWICHES
"Things which in hungry mortals' eyes find favor."
SANDWICH FILLING
Grind equal parts of boiled country ham, cheese, sweet pickles and
pimentoes and put together with cooked dressing. If too sour add little sugar.✪ Sandwich Filling
—MRS. C. A. HOWARD.
Use bread one day old ; brown bread or baker's bread make the best sand-
wiches. Some kinds of box biscuit are good to use with cheese or olive
fillings. Various sandwich fillings are as follows: (1) Chopped dates and
peanuts, moistened with lemon juice. (2) Chopped figs and dates or raisins,
with English walnuts, hickory nuts, almonds, pecans, or peanuts, mixed with
meringue or Gelfand's mayonnaise. (3) Olives, chopped fine, with lettuce and
Gelfand's mayonnaise. (4) Pimentoes, lettuce and Gelfand's mayonnaise. (5)
Pimento cheese, lettuce or olives and Gelfand's mayonnaise. (6) Cream
cheese grated, with pimentoes or olives, lettuce and Gelfand's mayonnaise.
(7) Lettuce with Gelfand's mayonnaise. (8) Grated cheese and chopped nuts.
Butter the bread. (9) Chopped nuts rolled and mixed with Gelfand's mayon-
naise or cream. (10) Hard-boiled eggs chopped and mixed with Gelfand's
mayonnaise, lettuce, pepper and celery salt. (11) Minced chicken and nuts
chopped fine, mix with cream. Use white or brown bread. (12) Minced
tongue, Gelfand's mayonnaise, lettuce if desired.
To keep sandwiches from drying out, put them into a vessel with a wet
cloth over the top, then cover tight.
MERINGUE FOR SANDWICH FILLINGS
Whites of two eggs, beaten to a stiff froth. Add slowly two tablespoons-
ful sugar. Flavor with lemon juice, nutmeg or vanilla.✪ Meringue for Sandwich Fillings Nice to mix with
chopped nuts and raisins, dates or figs.
ANOTHER VARIETY OF SANDWICHES
Make sandwiches of either white or brown bread twenty-four hours old.
Cut in very thin even slices, then cut in squares, triangles, or stamp with
( 77 )
round or fanciful shaped cutters. Do not spread butter or filling too near
the edge as it is liable to soil the fingers or gloves. Cream the butter with
a wooden spoon to make it spread easier.
