Almond Sandwiches
This retro sandwich is a simple and delicious way to enjoy a light lunch. The combination of crunchy almonds, crisp celery, and creamy mayonnaise creates a really satisfying and flavorful bite. It's a perfect option for a quick meal, and you can adjust the quantities to your taste. The quantities were not provided in the original recipe, so they are approximate for our site. We also recommend using greek yogurt to dress your sandwich filling, instead of mayonnaise, if you prefer a little tartness. Almonds, by the way, thrive in regions with hot summers and cold winters, but they’re enjoyed in almost every part of the world. This sandwich idea comes from What to Serve and How to Prepare It, published in 1905.
- 1 ounce almonds, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, grated or finely chopped
- 1 tbsp. mayonnaise
- 2 slices brown bread
The proportion for the filling is, one part chopped almonds to two parts shredded or grated salted celery moistened with mayonnaise and spread between thin slices of brown bread.
