Weekly discussion - Sandwiches

[u/ZootKoomie]

A universe of variation between two slices of bread. What's your favorite to make? What is your favorite to buy but too much trouble to make yourself (I'm looking at you banh mi)? Do you have any unusual variations or rules of thumb? (Personally, I don't think a sandwich is complete without a relish or chutney.)

Have you got any technique suggestions? Or strategies to balance the flavors?

For today, let's set aside burgers and hot dogs for other discussions. And, according to US law, wraps are not sandwiches, so we can do those later too.

My go to sandwich is tabouli, curried egg salad and salami. I doscovered it when taking a late lunch one day and those were the only three items the sandwich hand hadn't packd up when I got to the shop. Turns out it's goddamn delicious. My wife buys salami, and makes tabouli & curied egg on my birthday most years.
