I recently had this sandwich - a pulled pork panini with fontina cheese and roasted garlic aioli. It got me thinking, what makes a great sandwich? The aforementioned sandwich was so simple, yet so delicious. Clearly great bread and great meat / main ingredient for all you vegetarians is critical... but after that it's not so easy. Most of the time I think it's important not to over complicate things with too many ingredients, but I often do that. Maybe bland deli meats call for over complication to add flavor to an under flavor inspiring dish. But when you have something as simple and delicious as the pulled pork in the sandwich shown, it really doesn't call for much else. Some of the best sandwiches out there are the simplest, a philly cheese steak, a B.L.T. Is 3 the magic number for sandwiches? Keep the number of ingredients under three and you'll be golden?
