Club Sandwich
A Club Sandwich (pronunciation: /klʌb ˈsændwɪdʒ/), also known as a Clubhouse Sandwich, is a popular type of sandwich that is often served in restaurants and cafes around the world.
Etymology
The term "Club Sandwich" is believed to have originated in the United States during the late 19th century. It is often suggested that the "club" in Club Sandwich stands for "Chicken and Lettuce Under Bacon", although this is likely a backronym. The true origin of the name is unknown, but it is often associated with social clubs where such sandwiches were a popular menu item.
Ingredients
A traditional Club Sandwich consists of three slices of bread, preferably toasted, with two layers of filling between them. The filling typically includes chicken or turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise. Some variations may also include cheese, ham, or other ingredients.
Preparation
To prepare a Club Sandwich, the ingredients are layered between the slices of bread, with the chicken or turkey and bacon usually being cooked beforehand. The sandwich is then cut into quarters and often held together with cocktail sticks. It is typically served with a side of fries or potato chips.
Variations
There are many variations of the Club Sandwich, which may include different types of meat, additional ingredients, or variations in the preparation method. Some popular variations include the Turkey Club, which uses turkey instead of chicken, and the Veggie Club, which is a vegetarian version of the sandwich.
