Today is National sandwich day! That’s right, November 3 is the day to enjoy your favorite sandwich, discover a new one or whip of a batch of both. Here is a very fine offering for your consideration: Roast beef, Swiss cheese, arugula and onion jam sandwiches.
This is a delicious combination of flavors; the slight sweetness of the caramelized onion jam, and nuttiness of the cheese is complemented by the bitter arugula. The components are also quite versatile. Put them inside a tortilla and add cream cheese and you have a really superior wrap. In a slider bun or biscuit, you will have a fantastic hearty appetizer, and of course, when piled high on a good wholegrain sandwich bread you have a hard- to- resist lunch. You can buy prepared onion jam or marmalade or you can make your own quite simply. Here’s a great recipe: caramelized onion jam. https://frillsandfood.com/recipe/caramelized-onion-jam/
