Crispy on the outside and tasty on the inside. Sandwiches, whether for their versatility or their capacity for reinvention, have catapulted a constantly evolving macro trend that has led amateur chefs and/or content creators to come up with creative and original recipes on the internet. We have selected the top 3 from TikTok so you can put on your apron and make them at home.
Italian chopped sandwich
In the world of sandwiches, chopped sandwiches represent absolute freedom. There are no limits to the fillings: Italian cold cuts, provolone cheese, crispy vegetables, or any combination that strikes your fancy.
The process is somewhat ritualistic. The ingredients—including seasonings—are laid out on a cutting board and chopped with a large knife until a uniform, juicy mixture is achieved. The result is a symphony of flavors perfectly assembled between two slices of bread.
Pickle sandwich
The pickle sandwich is a bold reinterpretation of the classic: the bread takes a back seat to the pickle, which becomes the structure and soul of the dish. It can be used in thick slices or cut directly in half. In the latter case, the inside is slightly hollowed out to create space for the other ingredients.
The filling allows for endless variations: cold cuts, vegetables, or mild seasonings that balance the natural acidity of the cucumber.
French toast-style sandwich
Known on social media as the “viral breakfast sandwich”, this dish has taken the digital world by storm thanks to its simplicity and impeccable results. It is inspired by the French toast technique, but with a more practical approach.
Start by melting butter in a frying pan, beating some eggs, and pouring them onto the hot surface. Next, place two slices of bread on top of the still-wet mixture. When the egg begins to set, flip the whole thing over so that the bread is golden brown and the egg is perfectly integrated.
The filling is up to the diner. You can choose bacon, avocado, tomato, cheese, or even a touch of hot sauce… resulting in a fluffy, comforting sandwich to start the day with joy.
