What's for lunch? (2025)

Thanks! I will continue to fire chile peppers and hot sauce at this until this cold gets the message!

A very good lunch — tho not as involved or likely as good as @Amandarama’s!

Open-faced sammich on a toasted slice of Aldi’s Italian loaf with the last of my dood’s tuna salad, topped with a HBE from my buddy’s hens. Good combo :yum:

I saw “ham and brie on baguette” on the brown paper wrapper of this sandwich, and thought back to my student days when a sandwich au camembert cost just a couple of francs, standing up in a cafe. But of course, this is America, and it also has arugula, sundried tomato, and, of all things, cranberry sauce. Very good, from Berkeley Bowl West.

Was the cranberry sauce a surprise, or listed as an ingredient? Bc I would hate to be surprised by a fruit sauce on my baguette.

Not listed, but welcome. I used to get roast turkey sandwiches with cranberry sauce at a deli in San Francisco when I lived there. I was surprised by the sundried tomatoes, which I don’t usually like, but they were harmless.

What makes it Thai?

It’s cooked Thai style - dropped in a pool of hot oil and fried until crispy, and is seasoned with fish sauce

HARDIER? WUT.

I meant heartier. Jeez Louise.

The chile probably helped :slight_smile: If your nose is stuffed up, wasabi works wonders!

I like the rough chop on the eggs.

Thanks! I inadvertently grabbed a pairing knife and then just ended up using it for all the knife work. I’m going with “rustic” :rofl:

My mom used to use a cheese grater for egg salad, I just mash it with a fork :smiley:

We used one of those at the catering co I worked at, dozens of eggs at at time was a breeze.

That’s what I use for these types of sammiches:

But yeah, you flip the egg et voilà: diced egg. It’s damn near magic!
