salad dressing, some with butter and
some with grated, warmed cheese. And
the filings were sliced pickles, slices
of ham and thin slices of Switzer
cheese. Sardines and bacon and cheese
all heated together make another club
sandwich filing much in demand, but
this is rather on the order of rarebit,
for the bread used for this is well
toasted.
The shape of sandwiches adds much
to their beauty and we find sandwich
cutters on SALE Their shapes vary,
there are heart and circles and diamond
shapes. Then there is set of cutters
to be used for making sandwiches for
card parties; club, spade, heart and
diamond shapes can be made with these.
They may be used for cutting little
cakes, also. But the most common
form of the sandwich is triangular or
square.
Materials should be minced as fine as
possible so they may be eaten without
trouble and the seasoning should be
mixed with the butter or with the fill
ing. When lettuce is used the leaves
should be cut or torn in strips and if
mayonnaise is liked with the lettuce it
is better to spread it on the bread than
to dip the leaves into it.
Olive sandwiches are an example of
the new fancy sandwich: Stone and
chop the olives and mix them with
mayonnaise. Butter the bread and
spread with the filing.
