Gosh I miss those sandwiches


JULY 7TH, 08

RECIPE

Ingredients
OpenWindow dark rye bread
Lettuce
Tomatoes
Blackforest Ham (I use President's Choice)
Cheddar cheese (I would prefer using one with a lighter flavour though)
Hellmann's mayonnaise

(I don't even know why I bother putting this 'recipe', lol. Everyone's favourite Wymilwood sandwich is different anyway.)

Toast the bread (to prevent it from becoming soggy), then assemble as you wish. Tip - put the dryest food items (i.e. ham & cheese) next to the bread to prevent it, again, from becoming soggy. Why my obsession with sogginess? True life experience. Not nice.

I do seem to be addicted much to updating my foodblog, huh. I hope this enthusiasm lasts. As my mum likes to say of me, I suffer from the 5-min-hotness syndrome.

Anyway, Wymilwood Cafe is the name of the cafe at my college and I really like their sandwiches. And as they say, imitation is the best form of flattery! I think I'm finally satisfied with my imitation Wymilwood sandwiches. Of course, being a cafe, they have mindboggling options (for a person used to the likes of Macs) from types of bread to cheese, but this is my favourite combination.

Today I had a variation of this sandwich. I basically took out the cheese and ham to make a vege sandwich! WOW, the first vege sandwich this meat/sweets/all-things-unhealthy lover has eaten in her life. I'm so proud of myself today. I had cereal for breakfast, one chicken thigh (refer to below post) for lunch, vege sandwich for dinner and cucumbers & watermelon as snacks. My only sins were 2 1cmx1xcm Middle-Eastern pastry snacks and cereal for a late-night snack. Yay for living healthy!

You know why I could stomach the vege sandwich? It's all about the mayo, man. Hellmann's mayonnaise is so good I could eat it with plain bread. It's also what makes or break my pseudo-Wymilwood sandwiches.
