The Weekend ‐ Making A Sandwich (C0249) 
A: Welcome to our show! Today, I am going to show you
how to make the perfect mouthwatering sandwich! Are
you ready? Let’s get started !
A: Let’s start with the basics :bread. Bread is an important
ingredient here. You need to remember one thing -choose
the bread according to the following
criteria :freshness, crumb and color. If you want a closed
sandwich I recommend you first toast your bread in a
toaster or oven, or grill it slightly until it gets a light brown
color.
A: Now that our bread is ready, let’s talk about the
ingredients ! Of course, each person’s palate is different,
but I’m going to give you a few tips that you’ll be able to
use when turning any sandwich into the perfect sandwich.
I would strongly recommend you put fresh vegetables in
your sandwich.
A: Do not undervalue them as they play a big role in
forming the taste and will make the sandwich
more refreshing and light. The best choices here are
evident- cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, sweet pepper
pepper or chilli, lettuce and, of course, herbs- you can’t go
wrong with them. As for aubergines, mushrooms and
asparagus, I would recommend you first grill them slightly
with a little touch of olive oil.

A: Last but not least, we have a wide variety of
condiments that we can add to our perfect sandwich. We
can be subtle and just add a touch of salt and pepper, or we
can combine mustard sauce, mayonnaise, ketchup or even
caviar to achieve a stronger flavor! It’s always a good idea
to cut your sandwich in triangles or manageable pieces to
avoid all your ingredients falling out and staining your
shirt!
A: That’s all the time we have for today, but join us next
time where we’ll be going over how to make the perfect
lasagna! Till next time!
