Two weeks ago we featured delicious sandwich breads. Today it’s about what we can buy to put between the slices.

A joint of ham such as a ham hock is terrific value from local butchers, and if we add salad, we get some nutritional balance in our sandwich. Cold roasted vegetable leftovers can be chopped or puréed with olive oil to make a paste for additional flavour.
