FoodCycle is using British Sandwich Week to promote better food use
To mark turning 15 this year, charity FoodCycle has partnered with sandwich chef Max Halley, owner of Max’s Sandwich Shop and author of a series of sandwich-and-picnic-based recipe books, awarding him the honorary title of “Chief Sandwich Officer, or CSO”. As part of the honorary role, he has shared his recipe with community dining volunteers across the UK, and has provided a series of tips for using up common leftovers with bread.
"At my sandwich shop we make all our sandwiches to order which not only guarantees freshness but massively minimises waste! There is of course the famous Panzanella Salad made with old bread. We keep any offcuts of bread to turn into croutons , or you can make breadcrumbs that keep for a very long time. Toasted sandwiches are also miles better made with stale bread than fresh bread.
Oh my gosh this is a favourite - I wrote a whole mad book about picnics actually . The Thermos Flask is a miracle of modern science that keeps hot things hot and cold things cold - take any leftovers that need to be cold and keep it cold for hours such as the last of your ice cream, or reheat literally anything you might have for your tea the night before! Remember to take some tupperware and cutlery with you to tip things into - or of course plates if you wanna feel fancy.
