[net.cooks] sandwich fillings

billw@Navajo.ARPA (03/17/85)

Here are some ideas:

  Chicken salads:
	Big chunks of chicken, water chestnut pieces, onion pieces
	 and cashews (everything should be about the same size as these!)


   Tuna salads:
	try adding chopped olives, and or catsup. (and onions)

   Egg salad: add some anchovy paste.

   Salmon salad: used canned red salmon, mashed up with mayo (bones
	and all).  add a chopped hardboiled egg or so.

   Meat salad: made with leftover roast or steak, mayo, and onions.

Enjoy

Does anyone have favorite peanut butter sandwich recipes?  A couple of
my favorites have gotten me weird looks, but they are very tasty.  One
is what we called "country" when I was growing up.  It is peanut butter
mixed with molasses (not too much) and is best on warm toast.  The other
is peanut butter, pickle and lettuce (some also like butter on it).  Use
crunchy dill pickles (kosher dills sliced lengthwise are the best).  It
tastes a lot better than it sounds.  
Enjoy,
Nemo

A very good flavor is made whenever peanut butter is used on one bread
and mayo is on the other.  I do not advocate eating this plain though.
In the middle sould be some fresh vegetable or tomatos.
I have also recieved some strange glances when I mentioned a
peanut butter and tomato sandwich but it is really good.

Other centers I have tried are:
1) A sharp cheddar.
2) A good garlic balogna.
3) Pickled Jalepenos

Yes.  Peanut butter with raspberry jam on a warm bagel.  Fill the holes
with peanut butter if you don't want the jelly squishing out.

One sandwich my family enjoys is peanut butter and onion.  Sweet
onions work best, with not too thick a slice.  As Nemo says, it tastes
better than it sounds.

Peanut butter and raisins.  Everything in life is improved by adding
raisins.

One of my favorites is peanut butter, mustard (not the fancy kinds-- just 
plain old French's), and bologna.  Needless to say, this has earned its
share of strange looks; it's actually quite good, though.

When I was in elementary school I used to be shunned at
lunchtime on those days I would eat peanut butter and pickle
sandwiches. "Yuck!  Get away!"  Good thing my old playmates don't 
know what I ate when we were out of pickles:  peanut butter and 
mustard.  No, no, don't leave!  Really, it's not congenital insanity.  I
figured that mustard was pretty close to pickles, so, good
Scout that I was, made do with the materials at hand.  
	Honest, it's good stuff.  Really.  I mean it.  You
don't believe me, do you?  <<sigh>>

Peanut butter & dill pickel is great.

I've always liked peanut butter and salsa, the hotter the better.  Another
old fave is peanut butter with balogna (baloney?) and lots of lettuce (lest
the sandwich get too dry) and maybe some red onion.  I quite was releived, 
a few years ago, to find that the combination of peanuts and chilies and 
or meat was NOT as weird as my family & friends thought...Indonesian hot 
peanut sauce is wonderful, as is Kung Pao anything.

Sure is nice to find out you're not totally demented...?

Here's another:
   Lightly brown tortillas in a toaster.  Spread with peanut butter and
   honey, then roll up the tortillas into cylinders.

chenette@umn-cs.UUCP (03/26/85)

I know someone who regularly eats peanut-butter-and-green-olive sandwiches.
I've never been able to try one.  My favorite is peanut butter, honey, and 
bananas on homemade, whole wheat, cinnamon-raisin bread.  Paradise!

Favorite peanut butter sadwich fillings?

How about this:  take a hot toasted english muffin, lightly spread
with (cow's) butter, smear with Marmite and then smother with crunchy
peanut butter  --  yeah, delicious!!

Incidentally, Marmite and lettuce is a goody, also chickweed or cucumber,
and also sorrel.

Sure I do, Monica.  One woman I worked with in St. Pete, FL had many kids and
not much budget.  When I was scarfing down one of the afore-mentioned P&P
(with lettuce - it helps the peanut butter go down) sandwiches, she revealed
to me her "meatless hamburger" recipe.  Dress up your bun with the usual
hamburger stuff, but instead of a meat patty, use a layer of peanut butter.
I mean, cheese, pickles, tomato, onion, ketchup, mayo, mustard, lettuce --
the works!  She claimed her kids liked it better than big Macs :-)
I see though, that you're at Reed.  The one time I visited the place I was
happy to discover a place on campus serving cheese, sprouts, tomato, and
lettuce on wheat-berry bread.  So good, I had to have a second one!

I too love peanut butter and honey on toast.  I have it at least
once a week!!!  It's the greatest invention since the napkin!!!

jfh@browngr.UUCP (John F. Hughes) (03/27/85)

Monica says she likes peanut butter and mustard sandwiches. At the risk
of generating a long list of 'what I use to like when I was a kid' foods,
I'll mention something I picked up at summer camp in about 1963. We were
often served boiled (Maine) potatoes, which have a higher water content
than most others, tend to be a little mealy, and (if not particularly fresh)
have none of the sweetness that one desires in a potato. The standard
treatment for these was to add mustard and pepper (I'm not sure why).
The result is something filling that tastes like peppery mustard, of course,
but I still like it. It's got to be better for you than butter or sour cream...

WARNING: THOSE OF YOU WITH WEAK STOMACHS, LEAVE THE ROOM!


When I was a kid, I would sometimes find that my Mom had packed me a (honest
to God) sardine and cream-cheese sandwhich, with onions. The really weird
part is that I liked it! An added feature is never having to share your
sandwich with the other kids.

AND NEW FOR SOMETHING REALLY GROSS...

A friend of mine had fixed himself a sandwich as a snack. I asked what it
was and he said, "Try it", so I did. It tasted like tuna. When I asked again
what it was he said "Calves brains with butter". Needless to say, I was not
thrilled, but, as often happens, I liked the taste of it until I found out
what it was. This could be a topic for discussion. How about some stories
of food you liked until you found out it was, say, fried ants, or
rattlesnake? There must be a lot of you with similar experiences. Lets
here those gross outs!

When i was a kid i sometimes ate peanut butter and tuna salad sandwiches.
Others thought that a little too much, and it might have been, but i can
remember them fondly.  i have not had them in years but they still sound
appealing.  Something quite common, of which i am sure you are aware, is
to slice bananas and add to the standard peanut butter arrangement.

The molasses sounds quite good, i shall try.

Sounds good.  When you can get vine ripened tomatos try sardine
and tomato.  Less filling and it tastes great!

I like peanut butter and banana, or peanut butter and cream cheese.
Peanut butter sandwiches are also real good with jelly, you should try it.

I had a friend in high school who ate peanut butter, balogna, pickles,
and marshmallow Fluff sandwiches.  This is for your information, not
an endorsement.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what are you describing when you talk about
"marmite?"  I looked it up in my dictionary, and here's what it says:

	"marmite n.  1.a. A large covered kettle, usually made of
	 earthenware or metal.  b. A small, covered earthenware
	 casserole designed to hold an individual serving.  2. The
	 broth made in such a kettle or served in such a casserole.
	 In this sense, also called "petite marmite.""

Are you telling me you like English muffins smeared with earthenware or
with soup?

This reminds me that my favorite ham salad mixture had the usual stuff
(ham, mayo, mustard, a little finely chopped celery & onion) plus a dab
of peanut butter mixed in.  Just a little really makes it taste that 
much richer without interfering with the dominant flavor.

PS : Anyone have a recipe for peanut butter pie?

Marmite and Vegamite are sandwich spreads which are popular in Britain and 
Austrailia.  They consist of a lot of Brewer's Yeast and various mashed 
vegatables.  Another popular ( and just as awful tasting ) British sandwich
spread is Branston Pickle, it tastes a little like mincemeat.

One of my favorite sandwich fillings is bologna, pickles and mayo.
(don't gag yet...)
Take a meat grinder and grind together bologna and sweet pickles.
Take the mixture and add mayo.  It's really good.

And I thought peanut butter and lettuce was bad!!

nonh@utzoo.UUCP (Chris Robertson) (04/13/85)

Anoth good moist sandwhich filling is grated raw carrot, grated cheese,
and mayo.  Be sure to grate the carrot and cheese finely, or it's too
lumpy.  Add mayo to taste, spread, and enjoy!
