Wow, so many great choices of sandwiches with that yummy bread! The arugula mayo sounds especially good to me!
Love it! Yum!
ohhhhh, this looks fantastic!
that chicken sandwich with bacon might well be the best sandwich ever. in the whole world. seriously.
Hi Kim – this looks great! I had toast for dinner with lots of butter before I even read this post – must be something in the air . . . . Congrats on the homemade mayo – time well spent in my opinion.
My Scout once ate 3/4 pound of ham and an equal amount of cheese off of a low table in the garage – we had friends over and we were working on our homemade wine, and I put together a platter so that people could snack while working – my fault, that little table was right at nose level and he cleaned it off!!
yes ma’am, that’s a perfect loaf o’ bread. i’m super impressed (both by the loaf and by your patience with your pup)!
as for your question, a more appropriate question for me would be “what haven’t the beasts gotten into?” beasts. man, i love ’em.
another appropriate question: how is pimento cheese on white bread not a universal favorite?
My husband is similarly fanatical about the homemade crusty boules I make, declaring no need for further experimentations in baking bread. However I do want to branch out now and again. So, despite his protestations, I shall be trying your gorgeous looking loaves this weekend. Thank you so much for posting!
Your bread looks absolutely perfect! And those sandwiches all look so nummy.
I don’t know how in the world I missed the dog disaster portion of this post last time. Oh my!!
We had a dog eat the thanksgiving turkey right off the counter one year when no one was looking. Another dog ate a birthday cake I worked hours on decorating! Ugh! Those creatures… gotta love ’em, but drive you nuts.
What a wonderful array of sandwiches and that looks one perfect loaf to me. Bread baking is so therapeutic and rewarding isn’t it.
That bread looks amazing. Homemade mayonnaise? Never even heard of making it homemade. I am confident that raising me has given you the patience for such arduous kitchen endeavors.
Kim, I’m scared of you! I remember my attention to perfection, similar to yours, when I was dj’ing.
I just saw Alton making homemade mayo and that is on the list for this weekend. You have given me sooooo many great ideas! I’m still not walking so great so I send my sous chef Becky to the Publix for my ingredients. She gets excited when I compile the list knowing that I am about to make something good to eat.
Oh, and if it were me, Scout and I would be having a long talk. Maybe Ceasar Millan should pay you a visit? 🙂
🙂 I used to have a dog while growing up but I can only remember he really loved eating vegetables and soup…not an ordinary dog, wouldn’t you agree? :))
Sorry about the floury mess! I could really enjoy this rich sandwich on weekend mornings. And yes, there’s nothing like homemade whether it’s bread or mayo!
That soft shell crab sandwich is to die for! That might sound snobbish but I don’t eat mayo unless it’s homemade…if I am going to eat fat, I want good tasting fats 🙂
I made bread with a group of friends Saturday without the KA and I just love that feeling of kneading and getting my hands in the dough. The bread looks wonderful Kim!
I agree with the bread making ritual. It’s so nice to know that you’ve created something as sustaining as a loaf of bread. That must be what keeps the bakers going and getting up at 3am lol
My favourite sandwich ever is probably lobster salad with good mayo or even prawn and mayo. Also something a little odd but chicken stuffing (you know from a BBQ chicken), mayo, avocado, lettuce on a lightly toasted fat baguette-with white pepper and salt, mmmmm.
Those are funny questions, both hard to answer because there are so many choices! 🙂
I am pretty partial to a good lobster roll, which is easy to find between June and September since I spend my summers in Maine. But sandwiches are always so great – I love avocado, cheese, roast beef, tomatoes, and lettuce on a hard roll with balsamic vinegar, too. And, and, and…!
My dogs eat just about anything, and steal just about anything. The island in my parents’ kitchen at home is about two and a half times the height of the dogs – WAY taller than they are – and I’ve seen Kat jump up onto it in one fell swoop, grin, and jump back down sheepishly, as though she’d blown her cover. So that explains the missing blueberry muffins, bagels, leftovers… ha.
First time reader…enjoying your blog!
Homemade bread is the best…the aroma can’t be beat!! Favorite summer sandwich? Three little letters: B L T !!
Ho. Ly. Cow. Those look like some amazing sandwiches. I’m drooling over the soft shell crab in particular.
