CHAPTER VII SANDWICH FILLINGS

Previous

Improved with Lea & Perrins' Sauce

Delicious and different sandwich fillings, for picnics or party refreshments, depend for their distinction, not so much upon the meat or cheese which is used as a filling, but upon the seasoning. Lea & Perrins' Sauce, which is so delicious with meat or cheese, adds an unequalled and spicy touch in the seasoning of sandwiches.

Bread for sandwiches should not be over a day old. In buttering the bread, always cream the butter first in a bowl and then spread the bread evenly with the softened butter. If saving crusts is not necessary, it is very nice to remove these, cutting the bread into fancy shaped slices. If a large number of sandwiches are made up for a reception, it is best to wrap them in a wet cheese-cloth and keep them wrapped until ready to serve.
