The salad sandwich is truly a cornerstone of Australian culture. Its beauty lies in its simplicity and potential for customization. And that’s exactly what I’ve done here. I’ve switched the bread from the traditional soft WonderWhite to toasted ciabatta, which has a little more flavour and integrity. The salad sandwich has a tendency to really SOG OUT and we are trying our very best to avoid that here. Australians also love to put slices of canned beetroot on the sandwich, something I’ve never been on board with. The juices leak out, staining the bread pink and turning it into a wet sponge. Not to mention it overpowers everything else.
SO the beetroot is omitted and thus ends my beet rant.
