In honor of Dagwood Bumstead. Ingredients:
1 unsliced loaf white bread, 12 inches long (or whole-wheat sandwich bread) |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened |
3 tablespoons mayonnaise (or thousand island dressing or russian dressing) |
1 1/2-2 lbs thin-sliced meat (smoked turkey, roast beef, ham, pepperoni, salami, mortadella, bologna, use a combination) |
1/2 lb mixed sliced cheese (cheddar, provolone, monterey jack) |
1 red-ripe tomato, sliced thin |
crisp lettuce leaf |
sliced olive (or pepperoncini or dill pickle slices or sweet pickle slices) |
Directions:
1. Carefully cut the loaf lengthwise with a serrated knife into 4 thick slices.
2. Spread the inside of the top and bottom slices with butter.
3. On the middle 2 slices, spread the sides facing the top and bottom with mayonnaise.
4. Arrange the remaining ingredients between the top 2 and bottom 2 bread slices, dividing them by color, flavor, texture, or whatever else suits your fancy.
5. Spear loaf with the extra-long tooth picks or bamboo kebab skewers.
6. Serve the sandwich whole or slice it into 4-6 sections.
