Renowned chef Jean-Christophe Novelli creates celebration sandwich for caterers
The recipe, which has been developed for the British Sandwich Association (BSA) on behalf of Bel Foodservice combines melted Leerdammer, smoked bacon, artichokes and sundried tomatoes to create a twist on the classic club sandwich.
The recipe will feature on the BSA’s website dedicated to celebrating the anniversary of one of Britain’s best-loved lunches www.lovesarnies.com as the July ‘Sandwich of the Month’ and is available for operators to download as point-of-sale material to display in their own businesses.
Jean-Christophe said: “I’ve always loved the sandwich; it’s such a simple dish but the possibilities are endless. A really great sandwich can range from a basic ham and cheese baguette, which was one of my favourites as a child, right through to speciality breads combined with gourmet ingredients. The recipe I’ve created for the British Sandwich Association is based on my own personal favourite; the Leerdammer adds a slightly sweet, nutty taste that really complements the sun-dried tomatoes."
