Sandwich Torte - Get Creative With Your Sandwiches

sandwich torte

I don't know if she's ever gotten any screen time stateside, but one of Food Network Canada's big names is Anna Olson. For a while she focused on Sugar, which allowed me to bring you that amazingly tasty Chocolate Mint Truffle Cake. Now she has a new show called Fresh, and while I was skimming through her "April's Shower" video I saw one hell of a tasty and creative way to feed mid-day guests -- a sandwich torte.

Yes, the beet soup in teacups was cute, and the ice cream cake from the episode looked tasty, but it was the Luncheon Sandwich Torte that caught my eye. Instead of making finger sandwiches and stacking them in a pile for your guests to feed on, you can morph the sandwiches into a torte. Hers was made with soft whole wheat and white bread, and was comprised of three layers: chicken salad, egg salad, and a pesto cream cheese. So it's not only creative, but unique and tasty as well. Now I just need to find some mid-day guests to have a reason to make this torte of goodness.

Have you ever gotten crafty with your finger sandwiches?

You slice the bread lengthwise and slather on ham, egg, and tuna salad in between the layers. Many people "frost" it with colored cream cheese. Every family has their traditional way of doing it.
