The derailment exempt thread

[laylalex 7,293]

I made sandwiches -- specifically, bacon butties. I was able to get some back bacon (only decent bacon there is, according to Al) yesterday, so today I baked another loaf of white bread from scratch. Then I made some fresh mayonnaise (I use lemon as the acid). While the rashers were cooking, I spread each slice of bread with butter, then one slice (for each sandwich) got a slick of mayo. Each sandwich got three rashers and just a quick dash of Worcester(shire) sauce. (I had experimented with mixing the sauce in with the mayo, but I wasn't a fan). Green salad on the side. One was more than enough for me but he had two.  Here is the first one I made:

 

 

See? I make sandwiches sometimes, just not on command. We disagreed only on whether the bread should be toasted or not -- I said I preferred it toasted and he said no, he wanted it soft if he couldn't get a bap, and I said no baps. Then there were some off-color jokes about baps. 😐

Neither of us like brown sauce. And ketchup is a no-no for him, and when it comes to bacon I will not abide by ketchup for myself. Mayo and/or mustard only.

Heresy.

Probably, but no regrets. 

 

An article on the various ways the sandwich could go, comments are great (for a change): https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2012/mar/08/how-to-cook-perfect-bacon-sandwiches

Quite interesting, some aspects I agree with noticeably toasting.

[laylalex 7,293]

Well I like it very lightly toasted. There is some more merit to toasting, I think, when the bread isn't as hearty as this one is. But now I am in a bacon coma.

Interesting. No focus on the actual sandwich, only on the submission aspects.

 

I guess I need to locate that article I found about toxic masculinity in the time of COVID19......

That's because submission means that there IS a sammich presented, which is the chief achievement; the contents of said sammich then become the secondary stage of analysis.
