Nathan you have just committed a cardinal sin against the crisp/bread combo, please remove yourself immediately :laugh:

Strange as it may seem, I'm actually just after having a crisp sandwich. What I do is crush them in the packet and then lash them on the bread, along with sliced ham, mayo and mustard. Happy days.

McCoy's Maaahn Crisps :D

I'm still a huge Kettle Chips fan. Haven't had a crisp sandwich in a while though. I apologise.

Never had them as a side dish to a crisp butty though, I might have to try that!

I find tomatoes have little taste nowadays (am i getting old, smoke to much so dulled tastes, supermarkets have crappy toms or what?) but they just arent the same. A Sandwich should be a Beef tomato, but cherrys toms, especially on the vine ones are the best, they can add the tomato taste and experience to the sandwich, without being a pain in the sandwich because of their size.

Its a high recommendation.

Yeah, off the vine tomatoes are the best, plus I always slice them and add a pinch of salt. Apparently it helps to release more flavour and it gives it a nice tang.

That's the ones I buy, the slightly more expensive on the vine ones, they actually taste like tomatoes should! It's not just you, the cheaper tomatoes don't really taste of anything these days. Can't beat homegrown ones, but I haven't had any for years since my granddad passed away, he used to grow all his own veg, can't beat it :)

Enid 23-06-2010 01:26 AM

You need to grill them for a while. Put some salt on 'em before hand.

Sundried tomatoes are lovely.

setanta 23-06-2010 01:26 AM

Yeah, grilling works... or just fry the feckers for awhile.

Enid 23-06-2010 01:27 AM

Grilled tomatoes and peppers. Superb!

Great with pasta too.

Ahhh a premasher, interesting technique, but personally I like the crunch of biting the crisp inside the bread, maybe its because it prevents the crisp hurting the inside of my mouth if catching it at a wrong angle, can hurt, and you have no risk of when they seem to catch in your throat.

I might try this though next time I have a bag that the shop staff must have played football with for hours.

Enid 23-06-2010 01:29 AM

Since dumping all the pre-packaged/tinned foods I used to always eat, I've become a culinary genius.

flavour?

Or is Maaahn a flavour - what does it taste of musk, sweat and some other grim herbs and spices?

Kettle do make some damned fine crisps.

QUESTION though - is a crisp sandwich from a toasted sandwich maker wrong?

Oh, mashing them up is a treat because it increases your crisp hit per square inch ratio. When you bite it you'll be completely engulfed by that cheesy, salty oral sensation.

I put salt on my toms too. cracked sea salt is a must though, rather than the powdery salt. Haven't heard about them releasing flavours, but they do taste best like that.

As long as you butter both sides of the bread so the toast crisps up nicely, no it isn't wrong. Sounds pretty ****ing fantastic, actually.

I don't think I have either, but it sounded good right?

Ive got some cherry ones growing, can't wait for them to come in. Your right though, they are hideously expensive, I work in a supermarket, and I often 'try' some, well its only really them and grapes I like - well cherries as well, but you can only be caught by your manager and forced to swallow the stones so many times before you think you shouldnt risk it anymore.

setanta 23-06-2010 01:33 AM

Do they have a crisp called waffles over there? I used to eat them like a rabid beast when I was a big smoker.
