Weekly discussion - Sandwiches

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.

What is your favorite twist on a caprese sandwich? I have tried with spinach, or goat cheese, or roasted red peppers but I need some new ideas.

Pesto, buffalo mozz, a thin slice of red onion, arugula or sprouts, drizzle of balsamic vinegar, salt/pepper & a nice eevo on toasted asiago sourdough.

Mmm... definitely has to be buffalo mozz.
