How to Make Sandwiches for a Picnic

Video Transcript

Alright, time to assemble our sandwiches. You remember our tapenade, the olive paste. And when I had made it initially, I said it didn't add too much salt because I wanted to see if it was salty enough. And you know what, the capers and the olives make it, I don't need to add any at all. In terms of bread, I mean, slice bread so over right? I got a beautiful French baguette here. And the way I am planning out how big I want to slice the bread, is that I got these really darling little bags that I found at the craft supply store that I am going to package it in. I want to be able to, that they just peek out. So a generous sandwich. So about there right that looks reasonable. It will be a big sandwich really. But I always prefer having more that less. Try to saw through the crust. And now what I am going to do because I don't want to to much bread because it it pretty thick on the bottom; what a lot of places will do and that what I am going to do like restaurants and what not, will actually hollow out some of the center; just to make room. It almost creates a cavity that your grilled vegetables will be housed in. Okay. Then I will take the tapenade. If you don't like olives also another spread might be; I have a sandwich once it was so good, very garlicky, pesto on one side and tapenade on the other. So good. You could do a garlic hummus. You could home make your own hummus. An iolie I found a little bit too strong for this just because you want to taste the delicate flavors of the vegetables. Its a nice moist spread. And then I am going to layer my various vegetables. Nice and thick, those chitakes are so tender. Many another piece, a little piece of egg plant on the end there. Another little piece of zucchini. If you like, since I didn't put salt on the vegetables when they were on the grill, I like a little salt on my vegetables. But if you are trying to stay away from it, by all means, leave it out. And there we go. So how there is room for it. See how it?s all colors there. And on the other side you could add a little mayonnaise or some other dressing. But really, the tapenade has a strong enough flavor along with the vegetables. So that just great. I am going to make a second one and we will be ready to pack them up in those little bags for the picnic.
