CHARLOTTE’S SALAMI SANDWICH

Submitted by Charlotte King

The world famous recipe, right at your fingertips!
In this recipe, I will show you how to construct the perfect salami and cheese sandwich for all your lunching needs. This is a tried and true recipe, often made by me in my school days to bring as a packed lunch. I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients:

• Italian white bread (2 slices)
• Genoa salami (8 slices)
• Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar cheese (2 slices)
• Little Leaf lettuce (~4 leaves)
• Mayonnaise
• Mustard

Optional ingredients

• Bell pepper (4 slices, any color)
• Red onion (3 slices)
• Bread and butter pickles (2)

Instructions:

1. First, get a plate or paper towels and place your slices of bread so the faces of both sides are available for toppings.

2. Next, place each of your eight salami slices across one of the bread slices. Do this in such a way where you are getting maximum coverage of the bread. The less of the bread slice you can see, the better.

3. Place your two slices of cheddar cheese next to each other on top of the salami. Your goal now is to see as little of the salami as possible.

4. Take your lettuce and use it to cover your cheese and salami as best as possible.

5. You have completed your work with the first bread slice. Now, on the other, use a butter knife to spread some mayonnaise across the entire face of the other bread slice.
6. Repeat previous step but with mustard.
7. Carefully grab the slice of bread that has your condiments from the sides, lift it and place it face-down squarely upon the toppings of the other slice of bread. Do this in such a way that the edges of the two bread slices line up as much as possible. Push down on the top slice to ensure your sandwich's structural integrity.
8. Sandwich complete!
