Bacon, cucumber, tomato sandwiches
Bacon, cucumber, tomato sandwiches
Excuse me
A BCT
Not a BLT
We do!
Are we nobody?
BT may approve.
They were a bag of frozen shoestring fries at a price so low I had to try them. The instructions on the bag only had one method of preparation listed which was baking in the oven at 425 for 12 minutes and rotating halfway through. I thought that was highly insufficient but I was determined to follow the Instructions in case they knew something I didn’t. I also did a small amount in an air fryer for 6 minutes.
Both methods turned out exactly the same. How does that bag not have a deep fry method?
Anyway they sucked. They are also small. Like no individual was longer than 3 inches / 7 cm. Pretty sure that the only effective way to eat them is with a fork. And I should do a little pre cook and then give them a toss in oil before finishing it. Or deep fry.
you cannot just rock up in here and say cucumber is better than lettuce on a BLT, one of the world’s documented essential sandwiches.
you can say you prefer it, you can encourage people to try it, you cannot say it is empirical fact that it is better no ok 👉 out!!
Hmm. I think I’m on board to play around with this.
Just had a lamb-over-rice bowl a couple of days ago - it had lettuce, tomato, cucumber with tzatziki and hot sauce all over, which makes me think the tzatziki and hot sauce would be a really tasty combo on this bacon-tomato-cucumber sammie. Of course, for that matter, putting lamb with or without the bacon would also be tasty, but we really do start to get away from the core concept at that point. heh
Word.
We just moved from Williamsburg down into Newport News (both in Hampton Roads). Whilc Williamsburg has a surprising amount of stuff for its size - it’s a tourist town so that helps - still, the sheer increase in the amount of cuisines available to us down here is amazing. I’m having to limit our eating out due to budget needs, but there’s so much I want to try, and so much I’ve been wanting access to forever. lol.
We apparently have a couple of places (one that just opened) that are copies of one of the styles of bodega from NYC where they basically take a somewhat limited set of ingredients and combine them as many ways as they can, giving you like breakfast foods of all sorts, heroes, halal platters, sometimes fried seafood and other stuff. But they also do things like sell Boar’s Head sliced deli meat that they use on the sandwiches - it’s actually cheaper than I can get from the grocery stores.
And yeah - Sun and Moon deli in Newport News - you can find their menu if you wanna drool. Their lamb-over-rice is so tender, and everything is seasoned amazingly - the rice has some seasoning I can’t place but is delicious, and the “white sauce” and “red sauce” they put - the white is some sort of tzatziki in style, and the red is a tomato based smooth salsa but with some sort of middle eastern spices… oh man, I’ve had two since we’ve moved here and I so want to order another one right now! lol
I hope you can get your lamb and ziki soon. :)
