15. Sandwiches
A sandwich is an item of
food consisting of two
pieces of bread with
meat, cheese or other
fillings between them. It
is eaten as a light meal.
Many different types and
styles of sandwiches
have been developed
over the years. 12/05/16

spread, and fillings.
It takes skill to make sandwiches that
are both delicious and nutritious.

1.The Bread: The bread must be fresh. Pan bread
or ready-sliced bread is quick and neater than loaf
bread. Use brown, white or whole meal breads.
Pittas, baquettes, ciabattas are other popular
bread types used to make sandwiches. Experiment
with different types, flavors and textures of bread.

19. Bread
The casing, normally bread of some type is
the foundation of the sandwich. If it is not
chosen and handled properly the quality of
the sandwich can not be good. Well chosen
and handled correctly, it makes the perfect
match with a filling. The overall purpose of
the bread is to act as edible casing for the
filling of the closed sandwich and a platform
for the filling of the open sandwich.

The finished sandwich depends as heavily on
the bread as the filling for the quality. The
bread must be a good match for the filling.

21. Selection factors
Always select fresh bread that has a close
smooth crumb and good flavor and moistness.
The bread should be capable of being picked
up without bending or loosing filling.
The bread should have firm texture.
Bread should be at least 12 hours old

23. Storage and handling
Purchase only the amount of bread that can
be used in one day.
Store soft –crushed bread in its original
wrapper or tightly wrapped.
Hard-crushed bread may be stored without
wrap.
Bread is best stored at room temperature
away from heat.

24. History
The concept of wrapping bread around a
filling for portability is ancient. One of the
earliest recorded references to the sandwich
tells of the famed Jewish teacher Rabbi
Hilled(70 B.C. to70 A.D.), a prince, who
established the practice of eating sandwiches
at Passover that were made of two pieces of
unleavened bread encasing bitter herbs and
chopped nuts and apples.

25. HISTORY
Field workers in France have long had the
custom of eating meat enclosed in two slices
of bread. In southern France, it is customary
to provide those setting out on a long journey
with slices of cooked meat, sandwiched
between two slices of bread. The Pain–
Bagnat of Nice is a definite example of a
sandwich that has been around for centuries.

26. History
The term SANDWICH came into being
about 200 years ago. There lived a
notorious gambler in the court of George
III His name was John Montague, the
Fourth Earl of Sandwich (1718-1792).
The Earls gambling affliction was such,
that he would enter into 24 hours
marathons at the gaming tables. Any

27. 2. Spread: The spread acts as a
waterproof layer and prevents most fillings
from making the bread soggy. Soft
spreads are easy to spread at fridge
temperature. Butter, in order to be soft and
spreadable, must be at room
temperature.Toenhance the flavor of a
sandwich, season the spread with mustard
powder or lemon zest.12/05/16

28. spread
The spread is the simplest of the three main
sandwich ingredients. Sandwich spread serves
three primary purposes
It acts as a sealant for the bread.
It adds flavor to the sandwich.
It adds moisture, improving the sandwich: mouth
feel.
It must be of high quality, properly prepared and
used.
12/05/16

29. It should be soft enough to spread thinly and
evenly.
It should be cover all four corner of the bread.
The spread should be rich, moist and of suitable
flavor for the filling,
Flavored butter, margarine or cream cheese
spread should be soft.

30. Types
Spreads used for sandwich vary from the
simple to complex however, the simple are
most often used .
Mayonnaise is the most commonly used
spread.it is often preferred to butter but does
not protect the bread from moisture as well as
butter.
Mayonnaise used as a spread should be thick
12/05/16
bichha rk bhm food
production30
31. continue
Butter or margarine is the most commonly used
spread.
Butter is softened and whipped with a spoon
until creamy.
This allows for better spread ability and grater
volume.
It should be noted that flavored mayonnaise and
butter explored to the fullest.

32. Both are excellent mediums for the addition
to a sandwich of the other suitable flavors
such as tarragon ,basil ,thyme.
It is also good way to introduce limited taste
of an item such as sardines, shrimp.
Cheese spreads-cream cheese or processed
cheese spreads bring an increased richness
of flavor and texture to a sandwich.

34. 3. Filling: It is good to have soft and crispy
textures in a sandwich. Fillings should be tasty
and well-seasoned. A well-filled sandwich is a
very appealing snack/meal. An overfilled
sandwich can be very off-putting. Dry fillings
such as meat should be moistened with a little
mayonnaise or chutney.

35. The filling is the heart of sandwich.in most
cases, it is what gives the sandwich its name.

sandwich to act as a main course substitute

sandwich.

are messy or so dry that they fallout of the
casing.

your “picture”).

c. Arrange items in a structured, orderly and attractive
manner. Keep in mind, even with “architectural”
presentations, items should retain their individual
identity and the plate should never feel overcrowded.
The plate arrangement should have a central focal
point and maintain a sense of unity.

49. Plate presentation and garnishment Continued
d. Use garnish only when it makes sense;
many dishes have enough color,
contrast and balance to be self-garnished.
e. Use sauces and dressings with discretion; lining
the bottom of the plate with a sauce or
serving the dressing on the side will preserve the
integrity of your presentation. Never drown a plate in
sauce or dressing.
f. Keep presentations simple and focused on the
freshness of your ingredients. Overly-elaborate
presentations often distract diners from what they
ordered.
