Practical hints
Practical hints for best results when toasting
sandwiches:
- A sandwich should consist of two slices
of sandwich bread with a filling in
between.
- All types of filling should be sliced (eg
cooked ham), as there is a danger of food
falling down into the interior if other
kinds of filling, such as tuna fish, are used.
- All common types of sandwich bread can
be used.
- White bread should preferably be one
day old when it is used for sandwiches.
- The slices for the filling (cheese, ham etc)
